Eli5: do echinoderms have sentience?
In: Biology
Well, just about every living creature has *sentience.* A dog has sense-feeling. A rat. A fly. A zombie, even, in pretty much every fiction, because they respond to noise, smell, or light. These are all sense-feelings.
Since starfish biologically respond to various conditional changes within the ocean water, they are absolutely sentient.
Did you mean ***sapience***?
