Symbioses between hermit crabs and sea anemones will be                 studied to determine the interactions and adaptations that  have                evolved.  Experiments will determine:  1)  whether the numbers                  and locations of anemones on the gastropod shell affect the                     survival of hermit crabs subjected to predation.  2)  whether                   altering the shell's center of gravity alters the placement of                  anemones by the hermit crabs.  3)  whether hermit crabs will take               anemones from another crab more often when a predator is present.               4)  whether hermit crabs will select shells with anemones more                  often when a predator is present.  5)  the chemosensory abilities               of the hermit crabs towards various predators and the anemone.                  6)  whether the anemone is protected from starfish predation by                 being transported with the hermit crabs.  Such protection would                 demonstrate that this association represents mutualism.
