some Struk anatomy doodles, things may get moved around later Some things of note- Struks, like most other creatures on the planet, have two nostrils high on the face good for rising out of water for air. Both of these nostrils can open and close to block water from entering the airways but they also function for communication. Each nostril has its own set of vocal cords and muscular passageways built for opening and closing like the human mouth in order to create speech. That being said, the Struk language relies on having two functioning sets of vocals and tends to sound sing-songy too. humans. The "tongue" on a Struk is a muscle that separates the nasal passageways and esophagus, it works both push food into the stomach and to move the lining in the airways to create different sounds. Stuks also have two gill-like structures on each side of the body that filter air from the water into the lungs, this process is not as effective as breathing normal air though so Struks have effectively 4 large lungs built for storing air during periods of time when underwater breathing does not bring in enough oxygen for strenuous activity Struks also do not have developed jaws in the fashion that earth creatures do, they instead have an array of five appendages on the face to bring in food and two jaw-like structures that move independently to grind food horizontally rather than vertically.
