Phylum Mollusca Characteristics
• Mollusk—from the Latin
meaning “soft”
• Many have hard shells for
protection
• Approx. 112,000 species
• Range from sedentary feeders
to fast moving predators
• Coelomates
▫ Muscles can move without
affecting gut
▫ Circulatory system is not
interfered with
• Trochophore—larval stage
▫ Free-swimming
▫ Mouth and anus
▫ Cilia for movement and food
gathering
▫ Annelids and mollusks both
have, which shows common
ancestry

Mollusk Body Plan
• Two main regions
▫ Head-foot
 Contains sensory organs in head
 Foot contains muscle for locomotion
▫ Visceral mass
 Contains heart, digestive organs, excretion organs,
and reproduction organs

Mollusk Body Plan con’t.
• Coelom around heart
• Mantle covering the visceral
mass—aka—epidermal layer
• Mantle secretes CaCO3
▫ Shells protect, but decrease
surface area
▫ Gills evolved
▫ Gills are protected by mantle
cavity
• Bilateral symmetry—apparent
in nervous system
• Ganglia are connected by
nerve cords
▫ Light
▫ Touch
▫ Chemicals

Mollusk Body Plan con’t.
• Radula
▫ Main feeding adaptation
▫ Tongue-like strip covered in backwards facing
teeth
▫ Adapted to mollusk lifestyle
 Terrestrial snails eat grass
 Aquatic snails eat algae or drill shells
 Cone shell has a harpoon-like radula

• There are 8 classes, we will
focus on 3
▫ Gastropoda
▫ Bivalvia
▫ Cephalopoda

Class Gastropoda
• Gastro means “stomach” and
poda means “foot”
• 90,000 species
• Snails, abalones, conchs—one
shell
• Slugs and nudibranchs—no
shell
11
Class Gastropoda con’t.
• Torsion—the twisting process
that relocates the mantle
cavity
▫ Occurs in larval development
▫ Places mantle cavity near the
head
▫ Allows head to be retracted
▫ Coiling of the shell is
unrelated
12
Class Gastropoda con’t.
• Movement occurs by wave-like
contractions of the foot
• Open circulatory system
▫ Hemolymph
▫ Hemocoel—blood cavity
13
Snails
• Terrestrial, marine, and
freshwater
• Eyes on the end of tentacles—
they can retreat into head
• Gill-breathers
• Land snails have modified gills
for gas exchange
▫ Need to stay moist
▫ Dormancy—mucous plug—
prevents desiccation
14
Slugs
• Respire through modified
mantle cavity
• Live in moist shady places to
prevent desiccation
15
Nudibranchs
•
•
•
•
Marine
No shell
Name means “naked gill”
Respiration occurs across the
entire body
• Numerous extensions create
greater surface area
16
Pteropods
• Name means “wing foot”
• Use the foot to swim instead of
crawl
17
Class Bivalvia
• Name means “two shells”
• Clams, oysters, scallops
• Adductor muscles for closing
their shells
▫ Contraction closes
▫ Relaxation opens
18
Class Bivalvia con’t.
• Each valve or shell has three
layers
▫ Thin outer layer to protect
against acidity of sea water
▫ Thick middle layer of CaCO3
▫ Inner layer has “mother of
pearl” coating to create a
smooth surface for the soft
body
19
Class Bivalvia con’t.
• Typically sessile
▫ Use their foot as an anchor
▫ Fill it with hemolymph to
create a hatchet shape
▫ Contract foot and pull
themselves into the sand
20
Class Bivalvia con’t.
•

•
Filter feeders
No radula
No distinct head
Nervous system has three
ganglia pairs
▫
▫
▫
▫
Mouth
Digestive system
Foot
All are connected
• Respond to chemicals and
touch
• Some have eyes along
mantle—calico scallop
21
Clams
• Live buried in mud or sand
• Mantle cavity is sealed except
for the siphons
▫ Cilia generate current to pull
water in
▫ Water exits through
excurrent siphon
• Gills capture organic matter in
mucous
• Gills are also used for gas
exchange with hemolymph
• Typically separate sexes
• Marine clams use external
fertilization
• Freshwater clams use internal
fertilization
▫ Sperm in incurrent siphon
▫ Larvae exit the excurrent
siphon
▫ Eventually settle on bottom
and mature
22

Oysters
• Make permanent attachment
to hard surface early in life
• Commercially grown for food
and pearls
25
Scallops
• Motile
• Use shells in a clapping
motion to swim
26
Teredo or Shipworm
• Not a filter feeder
• Bores into driftwood or boat
timbers and ingests the
particles
• Wood is broken down by
symbiotic bacteria
27
Class Cephalopoda
• Name means “head foot”
• Octopuses, cuttlefish, squids,
chambered nautliluses
• Foot is concentrated in the
head, hence the name
• Free-swimming
28
Class Cephalopoda con’t.
• Predatory lifestyle

from the head
• Jaws resembling a parrot’s
beak
• Advanced nervous system
▫ Largest brain of any
invertebrate

• Separate sexes
▫ Males have specialized
tentacles for sperm transfer
▫ Females lay and guard eggs
▫ No trochophore stage
30
Squids
• Ten tentacles
• Two longest tentacles for prey
capture, other eight force food
into mouth
• Pump water through excurrent
siphon for propulsion
• Most grow to 1 ft long
• Giant squid grows to 60 ft
31
Octopuses
• Eight tentacles
• Don’t chase prey like squid—
crawl and grab
• Seldom exceed 3 ft in diameter
• Pacific octopus can grow to 8
ft in diameter
32
Chambered Nautilus
• Shell
• Series of gas-filled chambers
separated by partitions
• Confined to outermost
chamber
• Gas in the chambers allows
buoyancy

Phylum Annelida Characteristics
•
•
•
•
Name means “little rings”
15,000 species
Bilaterally symmetrical
Most distinctive feature is the
rings
• True coelom
▫ Divided into compartments
by partitions
▫ Evolutionary advantage—
allows different parts to
expand and contract
independently
• Duplication of organ systems
in each segment—injury
insurance
• Setae and parapodia—allow
for division into three classes
▫ Oligochaeta
▫ Polychaeta
▫ Hirudinea
35
Class Oligochaeta
•
•
•
•
Name means “few bristles”
Live in soil or freshwater
No parapodia
Have a few setae on each
segment
• Most familiar class member is
the earthworm
36
Class Polychaeta
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
2/3’s of annelids
Name means “many bristles”
Setae are found on parapodia
Antennae and specialized
mouth parts
Only annelids with
trochophore stage
Most are marine
Some are free-swimming
predators and use strong jaws
for feeding
Others feed on sediment
37
38
Class Hirudinea
• 300 species
• Live in calm bodies of
freshwater or moist vegetation
on land
• No setae or parapodia
• Each end has a sucker
• Can crawl using suckers
• Can swim with undulating
motion
• Carnivorous
▫ Invertebrate prey
▫ Blood suckers
▫ Secrete anesthetic and
anticoagulant
▫ Can ingest 10x their weight
39

Earthworm Structure and Movement
• More than 100 segments
• Circular and longitudinal
muscles
• Movement
▫ Anchor posterior setae
▫ Contract circular muscles to
extend
▫ Anchor anterior setae
▫ Contract longitudinal muscles
to pull forward
41
Earthworm Feeding and Digestion
• Ingest soil while burrowing—
use muscular pharynx
• Soil moves into the crop—
temporary storage area
• Soil is moved from crop to
gizzard—a muscular gut that
grinds the soil to release the
nutrients
• Nutrients are absorbed by the
intestine—typhlosole folds
• Undigested materials exit
through anus
• Maintains soils fertility by
decomposition and aeration
42
Earthworm Circulation
• Closed system
• Blood travels to the posterior
through a ventral blood vessel
• Blood returns to the anterior
heart through a dorsal blood
vessel
• Aortic arches link the vessels—
these arches act as hearts to
contract and move the blood
43
Earthworm Respiration and Excretion
• Gases are exchanged by
diffusion through skin and
cuticle—no specialized organs
• Diffusion only occurs if skin is
moist—mucous and cuticle aid
in this effort
• Cell wastes are eliminated
through nephridia
▫ Each segment, except, the
first three, and last one, have
nephridia
▫ Coelomic fluid passes
through, water is reabsorbed,
wastes eliminated
44
Earthworm Nervous System
• Chain of ganglia connected by
a ventral nerve cord
• Most segments contain a
ganglion
• Nerves branch from ganglia
• Several anterior ganglia are
fused to form a brain

45
Earthworm Reproduction
• Hermaphrodites that do not
self-fertilize
• Mating
▫ Press ventral surfaces together
▫ Anterior ends are pointed in
opposite directions
▫ Held together by mucous and
setae at the clitellum
▫ Sperm is injected and moves to
seminal receptacle
▫ Each worm then secretes a
tube of mucous and chitin
where sperm and eggs meet
outside the body
• 2-3 week development prior to
hatching
