Name and describe the 3 basic characteristics of mollusks.
Lifestyles of the Beautiful and Benthic:
What is the diet of these organisms… (list food items, then write ______vore)
Lightning Whelk
Atlantic Moon Snail
Conch
Abalone
Cowrie
Olive
Florida Auger Snail (Terebra floridana)
Murex Snail
Chiton
Limpet

7. Lightning Whelk Busycon perversum pulleyi
Diet: consume bivalves (invertebrates with two shells), especially oysters, clams, and scallops

8. Atlantic Moon Snail Neverita duplicata
Diet: other mollusks, especially clams, by drilling a hole with its radula through the shell and at the same time secreting an acidic substance that softens the shell.

9. Conch Strombus gigas
Diet: eats algae off of rocks

10. Abalone
Eats Marine Algae

11. Cowrie
As a group, cowries eat a wide variety of things from algae, sponges to scavenging and carnivorous cowries that eat other snails. Each has a radula adapted to its particular prey.

12. Olive
Olive snails are predators. They feed on other snails, small crustaceans and also scavenge on dead animals. An Olive snail remains in the sand while it sticks its siphon above the surface. When it 'smells' suitable prey, it emerges to engulf the prey with its large foot, smothering it with slime and then dragging it beneath the sand to be eaten at leisure.

13. Florida Auger
Auger snails have a poison gland, and a harpoon-like “tooth” which can be ejected from the proboscis to stab worms and small fish.

14. Murex
They eat other snails and clams, as well as coral!

15. Chitons and Limpets
They eat algae, bryozoans, diatoms and sometimes bacteria by scraping the rocky substrate with their well-developed radula.
They eat different types of algae such as microscopic seaweed.

16. Lifestyles of the Gooey, Gross and Angelic:
Look up pictures of living geoducks, angelwings, and Eastern Oysters. On the geoducks and angelwings, what is the structure that stands out? What is its purpose? Why does the oyster not have this?

17. Eastern Oyster Crassostrea virginica

18. Angelwing Cyrtopleura costata

19. Geoduck Panopea generosa
The long siphon with which the geoduck feeds on tiny marine animals cannot be pulled inside its shell. Geoducks often burrow into the sand to a depth of four feet (1.2 m). Their reddish flesh is considered a delicacy.

20. Marine Invertebrates – Anatomy & Physiology Survey, pt. 5
Lifestyles of the Intelligent and Tentacled:
Besides the squids and octopi, there are many other cephalopods. Name two other extant as well as two extinct examples.
Draw an Octopus eye in cross-section. How does this compare with ours?
Squids and octopi are all predators. What do their mouths look like? Draw a cephalopod mouth. How is this different from the gastropods?
How does a Chambered Nautilus swim and maintain buoyancy?
Since only the shells of fossil cephalopods have been preserved, how do we know that they were actually “tentacle-heads”?
What evidence is there that Cephalopods are the most intelligent of invertebrates?

21. Cuttlefish

22. Chambered Nautilus

23. Adios, Ammonites!

24. The eyes have it… (what differences do you see?)

25. Mollusk Mouths

26. Mollusk Reproduction – sexual with a twist!

27. Pelecypods have male and female genders, but fertilization can be internal (some clams) or external (other clams and oysters)

28. Cephalopods have well-defined sexes…
Males leave a packet of spermatophores
Inside female.

29. …while some gastropods are hermaphroditic (and others have distinct genders)
