shrimp
Noms alternatifs : prawn
Shrimp are decapod crustaceans which are also known as prawn in certain areas of the globe. The body of the animal is divided into two main parts: the cephalothorax (which is the fusion of the head with the thorax) and a long and narrow abdomen. Another distinguishable feature is the antennae, which have sensors that allow the shrimp to "feel" their surroundings. Shrimp are widespread and can be found anywhere from the tropics to the polar regions.
