Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Statoblasts are a specialized type of dormant bud that form in freshwater ectoprocts during the fall and winter months. They are meant to survive through harsh environmental conditions such as drying out, freezing, or other extreme temperatures. These buds eventually hatch into new individuals and contribute to the spread of the colony.
