Sea Anemone
Bunodosoma cavernata
Sea anemones have a one-way gut. Food they capture with their tentacles goes into the mouth at the center of the animal. Later on, any undigested bits of food come out through the same hole.
Sea anemones fold themselves up when the tide is low to preserve the moisture inside their bodies.
