Have a pair of pincers
called chelapeds, or "claws"--one is
a heavier crusher claw and the other
is a smaller feeding claw. The head has
two pairs of antennae; they have compound eyes.
The lobster has an external nose that
is porous so that an odor patch can be
diffused in from a high concentration to a
low concentration and then out again.
Females lay several thousands of eggs
approximately once every two years.
When lobsters grow,they have to molt
(or shed) their shells and grow a new one.
Lobsters live for about fifteen years.
Lobsters are primarily scavengers which means
they willeat almost anything,
dead or alive. Lobsters
are related to Crayfish, which are freshwater creatures.
