Answer 2

oops - you may know wrong. I don't think Mussels and Barnacles are E & F respectively. You can work some of these out just by reasoning - A has to be something with gills and the ability to 'pant'. Not many choices there, are there? B has to be something that can move. C has to be something that hides inside a shell (presumably not its own shell). E has to be something that lives inside some sort of shell that has a 'door' (presumably its own shell), and presumably can't move but lives at the intertidal zone, where it's underwater sometimes and above water sometimes. D is something that anchors itself to rocks using 'holdfasts' (that actually could be 2 of those answers, one animal and one plant - you're going to have to see which one has an alternate best answer). F is an odd one. Maybe see what's left after all the others are worked out.. And G - that's another odd one; implies that the organism lives outside the water for some significant amount of time, which seems strange for a marine biology question - perhaps it means something different from what it sounds like.
