| | Nautiloids: The First Cephalopods |
| | Contrary to the widely held misconception that nautiloids (and other shelled cephalopods) work in the same way as submarines, there is no actual pumping action involved in this process at all. | | | Such an animal if rolled up could have presented a difficult prey item for a nautiloid with its exposed soft parts on its head. | | | Some palaeontologists believe that they were planktonic organisms living a jellyfish-life existence; others envision them as buoyant snails, making short jet-propelled hops across the seabed in search of prey or safety. |

| | Unlike many of the animals you are studying, bivalve mollusks typically have an amorphous-looking reproductive system. | | | There seems to be a relationship between the oxygen content of the animal's environment and the presence of the style. | | | The siphon tips are supplied with tiny sensitive tentacles; when they are touched, the siphon muscles retract immediately and the clam closes-up--it literally "clams up". |

| | Animal shell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Large amounts of shells may form sediment and become compressed into limestone. | | | It is sometimes erroneously claimed that shells are made of chitin, but these are unrelated materials (except for their hardness and use as a covering by animals). | | | This process eventually forms what we call pearls and continues for as long as the mollusk lives. |
