How long can hermit crabs go without food and water?

Sedbober [7]

Hermit crabs live in large colonies so there is no real answer. You can put up to 10 hermits in a 10 gallon aquarium or 4 to 6 in the smallest plastic cage safely. They do eat but very little and can go several days up to two weeks without food. They store water in the back of their shell for moisture for their gills.

Answer:

Explanation:

$\text{From the given question, we are to copy and complete the passage.}$

$\text{The functional pathway for the gustatory system begins with taste cells whose} \\ \\ \text{function is the} \ \mathbf{sensation} \ \text{of taste. Taste cells form synapses with the} \\ \\ \mathbf{gustatory \ afferent \ axons} \ \text{whose cell bodies are in the gustatory ganglion, }$

$\text{and whose axon form the} \ \mathbf{vagal \ nerves} \text{and the glossopharyngela nerve.} \\ \\ \text{These axons terminate in the gustatory nucleus of the solitary nucleus.} \\ \\ \text{The gustatory nucleus project into the} \ \mathbf{ hypothalamus.} \\ \\ \text{These thalamic nucleus project into the} \ \mathbf{olfactory \ projection} \ \text{in the } \\ \\ \text{parietal cortex and function of these neurons is the} \ \mathbf{ sensation} \ \text{ of taste. } \\ \\$

$\text{It is also important to mention an accessory pathway where only} \ \mathbf{sensory } \\ \\ \text{information travels from the gustatory nucleus to a motor nucleus in the brainstem.} \\ \\ \text{This motor nucleus projects to muscle cells of the esophagus and stomach, producing} \\ \\ \text{reflexive }\mathbf{arc}$
