What Are the Functions of the Ampulla on a Starfish? Ampullae are an important part of the water vascular system of starfish, which is the responsible for the animal's locomotion. The only function of the ampullae is to store the water that enters the vascular system and send it to the minuscule tube feet, located in the ventral side of the starfish's arms.he contraction of the muscles also causes the water stored in the ampullae to move to the tube feet, which are the locomotion organs of the starfish. Nerve cells connected to the ampullae and other parts of the vascular water system control the relaxation and contraction of the ampullae's muscle fibers.

Definitions &Translations Syringomyelia /sɪˌrɪŋɡɵmaɪˈiːliə/ is a generic term referring to a disorder in which a cyst or cavity forms within the spinal cord.This cyst, called a syrinx, can expand and elongate over time, destroying the spinal cord.yringomyelia may also cause a loss of the ability to feel extremes of hot or cold, especially in the hands. The disorder generally leads to a cape-like loss of pain and temperature sensation along the back and arms.
