In fact, it is often more comfortable to pick up the leg by grabbing the fixator, rather than holding the leg itself.he fixator is composed or one or more metal bars and rings, which in turn connect to a child via metal pins and wires.

Habitat and Distribution. Pin this Image. Green sea urchins used to live in cold waters of the sub Polar Regions. They live in Northern cooler part of the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean. Some also live in the Arctic too. The sea animal can be found in rocky sea beds. They often live in the low depth tidal zones.
Its sharp teeth can scrape algae off rocks, and grind up plankton, kelp, periwinkles, and sometimes even barnacles and mussels. Sea urchins are sought out as food by birds, sea stars, cod, lobsters, and foxes. In the northwest, sea otters are common predators of the purple sea urchin. Humans also seek out sea urchin eggs, or roe, for food. The eggs are considered a delicacy in Asia.
