Sea Urchin Shell

-Although the sea urchin shell looks fragile, the shape and construction makes it quite strong.

-The shell is constructed of many small plates made of a strong material called calcium carbonate.

-The small plates on the sea urchin shell also interlock together, creating an even stronger and more crack-resistant shell structure.
