Question
Answer
All of the following are unique to the molluscs except one. Select the exception.   A) mantle *B) shell* C) visceral mass D) head-foot  
🗑
Which of the following is true of the radula of most molluscs?   It is used in rasping food.  
🗑
The mantle of most molluscs   secretes the shell.  
🗑
Which of the following is true of the mantle cavity of a bivalve?   It is the area where water circulates during feeding and gas exchange.  
🗑
The molluscs are most closely related to the   other lophotrochozoans  
🗑
Which of the following is true of the visceral mass of a mollusc?   trochophore larvae and they are lophotrochozoans.  
🗑
All of the following mollusc characters would be found in a member of the class Bivalvia except one. Select the exception.   radula  
🗑
Members of which of the following mollusc classes would be characterized by a shell consisting of 8 plates?   Polyplacophora  
🗑
Members of which of the following mollusc classes would be characterized by a reduced head, a mantle that surrounds the entire body and a tusk-shaped shell?   Scaphopoda  
🗑
Members of which of the following mollusc clases would be characterized by their complex nervous sytems, a head in line with the visceral mass, and a closed circulatory system.   Cephalopoda  
🗑
______ is a developmental process that occurs in gastropods and results in a 180 degree counterclockwise twisting of the visceral mass and mantle cavity.   Torsion  
🗑
A ______ is a mucoid mass that extends to the stomach of gastropods. It contains trapped food particles and is rotated by cilia.   protostyle  
🗑
Members of the gastropod subclass Pulmonata are predominantly freshwater or terrestrial. Their mantle is modified into a lung, which opens to the outside of the mantle cavity through a/an   pneumostome.  
🗑
Water exits the mantle cavity of a bivalve through the ______ and the excurrent opening.   suprabranchial chamber  
🗑
A ______ is a developmental stage of a freshwater bivalve that is parasitic on fishes.   glochidium  
🗑
Which type of cephalopod possesses an external shell?   nautilus  
🗑
Which of the following is generally accepted as the prevailing explanation behind the evolution of intelligence in cephalopods?   living as active predators as well as actively avoiding predators  
🗑
Members of the classes Cephalopoda and Scaphopoda are the only molluscs that possess closed circulatory systems.   False  
🗑
Cephalopods rely on olfactory senses for detecting prey.   False  
🗑
Members of the class Polyplacophora include the chitons, which are found on hard substrates in marine habitats.   False  
🗑
Most bivalves are dioecious.   True  
🗑
Members of the class Monoplacophora are wormlike molluscs that lack a shell, crystalline style, and foot; they live in vertical burrows on the deep-sea floor.   False  
🗑
Labial palps of bivalves sort filtered food particles delivered by cilia lining the ventral margin of the gills.   True  
🗑
The operculum aids in both respiration and reproduction in gastropods.   False  
🗑
The Gastropoda and the Cephalopoda form a clade characterized by a dorsoventrally elongate body and shell coiling.   True  
🗑
The diversity of body forms and lifestyles present in the phylum Mollusca is an excellent example of adaptive radiation.   True  
🗑
The absence of a shell in the Aplacophora is a primitive character in the phylum Mollusca.   True  
🗑
Fertilization in bivalves is typically internal.   False  
🗑
