How mollusks eat?

Question

I have to come up with two methods of how mullosks eat. I also have to have 6 sentences about each. So please help me? Thanks.

Answer 1

Some mollusks are filter feeders. They strain water using specialized gills and trap phytoplankton. Bivalves such as clams do this.

Other mollusks such as the ocitpus and squid hunt and kill their food. Both are equipped with tentacles for grasping. Often the tentacles come with stinging barbs.

You're halfway there, I'll leave the rest to you.

Answer 2

Mollusks eat many different types of food. Mollusks that eat plants are herbivores, mollusks that eat animals are carnivores, mollusks that eat both plants and animals are called omnivores, and mollusks that eat dead and decomposing material are known as detritovores. They are found in a wide variety of ecological niches in marine, freshwater, and terrestrial habitats. Some mollusks live thousands of meters below the surface of the ocean, while others live thousands of meters above sea level, even on the tops of mountains. They can also be found in tropical rain forests and deserts. All in all, mollusks have found a way to live almost everywhere.
