The sea anemone
can attach itself to rocks or coral. In the center of the sea
anemone is their mouth. In order for the sea anemone to eat, they
must wait for their food to swim by. Then they sting it with their
tentacles, and then push it into their mouth.
Sea anemones
spend most of their lives in one place. They can attach themselves
to rocks. Some even bury themselves in the mud.
