In the different lineages of molluscs, it is easy to understand the variations from the basic organizational plan in relation to the lifestyles of the organisms. For example, the clam is a buried living organism that feeds by filtration and the cuttlefish is a free predatory organism. The organization of Lamellibranchs and Cephalopods can then be related to these lifestyles. ndicate in a short text : Adaptations to predation in cuttlefish (and by extension in cephalopods)

BIOLOGY: Major Animal Phyla After examining the different specimens, construct a dichotomous key to the different phyla. 1. Develop a DICHOTOMOUS KEY to the CLASSES of Phylum MOLLUSCA: Class Polyplacophora (specimen:Tonicella lineata), Class Bivalvia (specimen:Mytilus (mussel)), Class Gastropoda (specimen:Achatina fulica (Giant African snail) & Cyprea sp. (cowry), & Class Cephalopoda (specimen: Loligo sp. (squid), Octopus vulgaris (octopus)) 2. Develop a DICHOTOMOUS KEY to the CLASSES of Phylum ARTHROPODODA. Class Chilopoda (specimen: Scolopendra (centipede) ) Class Diplopoda (specimen: Aclacodricus (millipede)) Class Insecta (specimen: Melicodes (grasshopper)) Class Crustacea (specimen: Penaeus (shrimp) & Portunus (crab) ) & Class Arachnida (specimen:Theridion (spider))
