What Is a Mollusk?Slugs, snails, and animals that once
lived in shells in the ocean or on the beach are all mollusks. Theseorganisms belong to the phylumMollusca. Members of this phylumrange from the slow moving slug tothe jet-propelled squid. Althoughmost species live in the ocean, otherslive in freshwater and moist terres-
trial habitats. Some aquatic mollusks,such as oysters and mussels, livefirmly attached to the ocean floor orto the bases of docks or woodenboats. Others, such as the octopus,swim freely in the ocean. Land-dwelling slugs and snails can befound crawling slowly over leaves onthe forest floor.
Examples of three classes of mol-lusks are shown in Figure 27.1.
If you are a shell collector, a walkon the beach as high tide begins torecede can reveal bountiful trea-
sures. The shell sizes, shapes, and col-ors are clues to the many differentkinds of animals that once inhab-ited these structures. How couldthe marine animal that lived inthe fan-shaped shell be relatedto the common garden slug?

Mollusks andSegmented Worms
What You’ll Learn■ You will distinguish among
the classes of mollusks andsegmented worms.
■ You will compare and con-trast the adaptations of mol-lusks and segmented worms.
Why It’s ImportantMollusks are an important food source for many animals,including humans. Some mollusks are filter feeders that clean impurities out oftheir watery environment.Earthworms turn, aerate, and fertilize the soil in whichthey live.
Observing a SnailGently hold a snail in yourhand. Describe the texture of the snail’s muscular foot.How does a snail move?

A Clam
C lams are bivalve mollusks. Bivalves includemussels, scallops, oysters, and other mollusks
with two hinged shells. Clams, like oysters, can covera foreign object, such as a grain of sand or a parasite,that has become lodged between its shell and its mantlewith layers of shell that eventually form a pearl.

Heart A bivalve has a three-chambered heart and an open circu-latory system. Its heart beats slowly,from 2 to 30 times per minute. Somemollusks, such as squids, have closedcirculatory systems.
Shell The body of abivalve is held betweentwo hinged shells.
Muscle The two shellsare drawn together bytwo muscles on oppo-site sides of the clam’sbody. The shells arekept closed when theanimal requires protec-tion. Bivalves can moveby rapidly opening andshutting their hingedshells.
Siphons In a clam, theedges of the mantle formtwo siphons that let waterin and out of the clam. Insome clams, the siphonscan be extended to thewater above the sandwhere the clam is buried.
Gills Gas exchange occursthrough the mantle and thegills. The gills also filter foodparticles from the water.
Foot A clam begins movement byextending a muscular foot frombetween its shells. When the foot isanchored in the mud or sand, themuscles in the foot shorten, therebypulling the animal forward.

Figure 27.3Look at the clam shell in this photo and locate a small hole onits edge. This tiny hole was made by the radula of a mollusk that ate the clam, leaving its shell behind to tell the tale of the clam’s fate.
Some mollusks have shells, andothers, including slugs and squids, areadapted to life without a hard cover-ing. All mollusks have bilateral sym-metry, a coelom, two body openings,a muscular foot for movement, and amantle. The mantle (MANT uhl) is athin membrane that surrounds theinternal organs of the mollusk. Inshelled mollusks, the mantle secretesthe shell.
Although mollusks look differentfrom one another on the outside,they share many internal similarities.You can see the similarities and thedifferences in these body areas inFigure 27.2 as you compare a snailand a squid. How does a clam buriedin sand obtain its food? Find out inthe Inside Story on the next page.
How mollusks obtain foodHave you ever watched a snail clean
algae from the sides of an aquarium?Snails, like many mollusks, use a rasp-ing structure called a radula to obtainfood. A radula (RAJ uh luh), locatedwithin the mouth of a mollusk, is atonguelike organ with rows of teeth.The radula is used to drill, scrape,grate, or cut food. Figure 27.3 showsthe results of the use of a radula.Octopuses and squids use their radu-las to pull food they have capturedinto their mouths. Other mollusksare grazers, some are predators, andsome are filter feeders. Bivalves donot have radulas; they obtain food byfiltering it out of the water.
Reproduction in mollusksMost mollusks have separate sexes
and reproduce sexually. Eggs andsperm are released at the same timeinto the surrounding water, whereexternal fertilization takes place.Many gastropods that live on landare hermaphrodites. The ability to produce both eggs and sperm is anadaptation commonly found in slow-moving animals because it increasesthe likelihood of fertilization.

Cultural DiversityPearl Cultivation In your lessons on mollusk biology, discusswith students how pearls are formed anddescribe the pearl cultivation industry inJapan. Since 1893, pearl farming has beenone of Japan’s most famous industries.
To add interest, introduce students to theAMA women of Japan. The AMA is a groupof diving women who collect pearls and
valuable mollusks from the ocean. Divingwomen have operated in Japan for morethan 2000 years. The divers take their namefrom the word ama, which in the ancientJapanese language meant “ocean” or “sky.”The AMA of Japan have been known to diveto depths greater than 50 meters hundredsof times daily without the use of snorkels orair tanks.

Respiration in mollusksMost mollusks have respiratory
structures called gills. Gills are spe-cialized parts of the mantle that con-sist of a system of filamentous projec-tions that contain a rich supply of blood for the transport of gases.Gills increase the surface areathrough which gases can diffuse. Inland snails and slugs, the mantle cav-ity appears to have evolved into aprimitive lung.
Excretion in mollusksMollusks are the oldest known ani-
mals to have evolved excretory struc-tures called nephridia. Nephridia(nih FRIHD ee uh) are organs thatremove metabolic wastes from ananimal’s body. Mollusks have one ortwo nephridia that collect wastesfrom the coelom. Wastes are dis-charged into the mantle cavity, andexpelled from the body by the pump-ing of the gills.
Diversity of MollusksWithin the large phylum of mol-
lusks, there are seven classes. Thethree classes that include the mostcommon and well-known species are Gastropoda, Bivalvia, andCephalopoda.
Gastropods: One-shelled mollusksThe largest class of mollusks is
Gastropoda, or the stomach-footedmollusks. The name comes from theway the animal’s large foot is posi-tioned under the rest of its body.Most species of gastropods have asingle shell. Other gastropod species,such as slugs, have no shell.
Shelled gastropods include snails,abalones, conches, periwinkles,whelks, limpets, cowries, and cones.They can be found in freshwater,saltwater, or moist terrestrial habi-tats. Shelled gastropods may be planteaters, predators, or parasites. Figure 27.5 shows two examples ofshelled gastropods.
Instead of being protected by ashell, the body of a slug is protectedby a thick layer of mucus. Colorfulsea slugs, also called nudibranchs,are protected in another way. Whencertain species of sea slugs feed on jellyfishes, they incorporate thepoisonous nematocysts of the jelly-fish into their own tissues withoutcausing these cells to discharge. Anyfishes trying to eat the sea slugs arerepelled when the nematocysts discharge into the unlucky predator.The bright colors of these gastropodswarn predators of the potential dan-ger, as shown in Figure 27.6.

Find out more about reproductionin mollusks by reading the Problem-Solving Lab on this page.
Although members of the phylumMollusca have different appearancesas adults, they all share similar devel-opmental patterns. The larval stagesof all mollusks are similar, as you cansee in Figure 27.4.
Some marine mollusks have free-swimming larvae that propel them-selves by cilia. In addition to larvae,most marine snails and bivalves haveanother developmental stage called aveliger in which the beginnings of afoot, shell, and mantle can be seen.
Nervous control in mollusksMollusks have simple nervous sys-
tems that include a brain and associ-ated nerves that coordinate theirmovement and behavior. Most mol-lusks have paired eyes that rangefrom simple cups that detect light tothe complex eyes of octopuses thathave irises, pupils, and retinas thatfunction as well as those of humans.
Circulation in mollusksMollusks have a well-developed
circulatory system that includes athree-chambered heart. In most mollusks, the heart pumps bloodthrough an open circulatory system.In an open circulatory system, theblood moves through vessels and into open spaces around the bodyorgans. This adaptation exposes bodyorgans directly to blood that containsnutrients and oxygen, and removesmetabolic wastes. Some mollusks, suchas octopuses, move nutrients and oxy-gen through a closed circulatory sys-tem. In a closed circulatory system,blood moves through the bodyenclosed entirely in a series of bloodvessels. A closed system provides anefficient means of gas exchangewithin the body.

How do freshwater clams reproduce?
AnalysisExamine the life cycle of the freshwater clam Anodonta.
Freshwater clams are either male or female. Immature larvae,called glochidia, are formed within female clams’ reproduc-tive systems, then released in the surrounding water.
Thinking Critically1. What cell type must enter a female clam’s body in order
for glochidia to form? 2. What reproductive process must occur prior to the forma-
tion of glochidia? 3. Glochidia attach to and feed off of a specific fish host.
Predict what happens to glochidia if no host is available.4. How do glochidia change while attached to their host?5. It is estimated that a single clam can release over
1 000 000 glochidia. How might this be an adaptation to a life cycle that includes a parasitic stage?

Cephalopods: Head-footed mollusks
The head-footed mollusks are in the class Cephalopoda. Allcephalopods are marine organisms.This class includes the octopus, squid,cuttlefish, and chambered nautilus, asshown in Figure 27.8. The onlycephalopod with a shell is the cham-bered nautilus, but some species,such as the cuttlefish, have a reducedinternal shell. Scientists consider thecephalopods to have the most com-plex structures and to be the mostrecently evolved of all mollusks.

Like bivalves, cephalopods havesiphons that expel water. These mol-lusks can expel water forcefully inany direction, and move quickly byjet propulsion. Squids can attainspeeds of 20 m per second using thissystem of movement. You may beaware that cephalopods use jetpropulsion to escape from danger.They also can release a dark fluid tocloud the water. This "ink" helps toconfuse their predators so they canmake a quick escape.

AssessmentAssessmentBivalves: Two-shelled mollusksTwo-shelled mollusks such as
clams, oysters, and scallops belong tothe class Bivalvia, illustrated inFigure 27.7. Most bivalves aremarine, but a few species live infreshwater habitats. Bivalves occur ina range of sizes. Some are less than 1mm in length and others, such as thetropical giant clam, may be 1.5 mlong. Bivalves have no distinct heador radula. Most use their large, mus-cular foot for burrowing in the mudor sand at the bottom of the ocean ora lake. A ligament, like a hinge, con-nects their shells; strong musclesallow the shell to open and close overthe soft body. See if you can identifythe shells pictured in the MiniLab byusing the dichotomous key given.
One of the main differencesbetween gastropods and bivalves isthat bivalves are filter feeders thatobtain food by filtering small parti-cles from the surrounding water.Bivalve mollusks have several adapta-tions for filter feeding, including cilia that beat to draw water inthrough an incurrent siphon. Aswater moves over the gills, food andsediments become trapped in mucus.Cilia that line the gills push food par-ticles to the stomach. Cilia also act asa sorting device. Large particles, sed-iment, and anything else that isrejected is transported to the mantlewhere it is expelled through theexcurrent siphon, or to the foot,where it is eliminated from the ani-mal’s body.

Identifying Mollusks Have you ever taken a walk on thebeach and filled your pockets with shells, and as you exam-ined them later, wondered what they were? Use the follow-ing dichotomous key to determine the names of the shells.
Procedure! To use a dichotomous key, begin with a choice from the
first pair of descriptions.@ Follow the instructions for the next choice. Notice that
either a scientific name can be found at the end of eachdescription, or directions will tell you to go on to anothernumbered set of choices.1A One shell ...............................................Gastropods see 21B Two shells....................................................Bivalves see 32A Flat coil..................

each segment can move the animalalong.
Segmented worms can be found inmost environments, except in thefrozen soil of the polar regions andthe dry sand and soil of the deserts.You may be familiar with the earth-worms in your garden, but these arejust one of about 12 000 species ofsegmented worms that live in soil,freshwater, and the sea. Can youidentify a segmented worm? Find outby reading the Problem-Solving Labon this page.
Segmentation supports diversified functions
The most distinguishing charac-teristic of segmented worms is theircylindrical bodies that are dividedinto a series of ringed segments, asseen in the worms in Figure 27.10.This segmentation continues inter-nally as each segment is separatedfrom the others by a body partition.Segmentation is an important adap-tation for movement because eachsegment has its own muscles, allow-ing shortening and lengthening ofthe body.
If you examine each segment ofmost annelids, you find that the bodyis made up of identical segments.Segmentation, however, also allows forspecialization of body tissues. Groupsof segments may be adapted for aparticular function. Certain segmentshave modifications for functions suchas sensing and reproduction.
Nervous system in segmented worms
Segmented worms have simple ner-vous systems in which organs in ante-rior segments have become modifiedfor sensing the environment. Somesensory organs are sensitive to light,and eyes with lenses and retinas haveevolved in certain species. In some
species there is a brain located in ananterior segment. Nerve cords con-nect the brain to nerve centers calledganglia, located in each segment. Youcan find out how earthwormsrespond to their environment in theBioLab at the end of this chapter.

What Is a SegmentedWorm?
Segmented worms are classified inthe phylum Annelida. They includethe earthworms, leeches, and bristle-worms, shown in Figure 27.9.Segmented worms are bilaterallysymmetrical and have a coelom andtwo body openings. Some have a lar-val stage that is similar to the larvalstages of certain mollusks, suggestinga common ancestor.
The basic body plan of segmentedworms is a tube within a tube. Theinternal tube, suspended within thecoelom, is the digestive tract. Food istaken in by the mouth, an opening inthe anterior end of the worm, andwastes are released through the anus,an opening at the posterior end.
Most segmented worms have tinybristles called setae (SEE tee) on eachsegment. The setae help segmentedworms move by providing a way toanchor their bodies in the soil so
Do earthworms have a front anda back end? Yes, they do. In fact,if you have ever watched one
move, you know that it crawls by firststretching the front of its body forward,and then pulling the back of its body up to thefront. A worm in motion looks a little like anaccordion playing.

An Earthworm
As an earthworm burrows through soil, it loosens, aerates, and fertilizes the soil. Burrows provide passage-
ways for plant roots and improve drainage of the soil.
Critical Thinking In what way is segmentation an importantadvantage in earthworm movement?
Earthworm
INSIDESSTORTORYY
INSIDE
Mouth An earth-worm takes soilinto its mouth, thebeginning of thedigestive tract.
11
Crop The crop is asac that holds soiltemporarily beforeit is passed into the gizzard.
22
Setae An earthwormalternately contracts setsof longitudinal and circu-lar muscles to move. Firstit contracts its longitudi-nal muscles on severalsegments, which bunchup. This causes tiny setaeto protrude, anchoringthe worm in the soil. Thenthe earthworm’s circularmuscles contract, thesetae are withdrawn, andthe worm moves forward.
77
Nephridia Nephridia areexcretory structures that elimi-nate metabolic wastes fromeach segment.
66
Gizzard The gizzardgrinds the organic mat-ter, or food, into smallpieces so that the nutri-ents in the food can beabsorbed as it passesthrough the intestine.Undigested food andany remaining soil areeliminated through theanus.
33
Circulatory system The closedcirculatory system consists ofenlarged blood vessels that areheavily muscled. When thesemuscles contract, they help pumpblood through the system, muchas a heart does in other animals.
44
Nervous system Anearthworm has a systemof nerve fibers in eachsegment. The nerve fibersare coordinated by a sim-ple brain that lies abovethe mouth. An earth-worm also has a ventralnerve cord.

PurposeStudents will examine the inter-nal structures of the earthwormand their functions.
Teaching Strategies■ Ask students to write a paragraph that explains howearthworm bodies show morecomplexity than the bodies offlatworms and roundworms.■ Obtain a plastic model of anearthworm. Point out each struc-ture discussed in the Inside Storyon the model.■ Challenge your advanced stu-dents to make a table that com-pares earthworms with the free-living flatworms and roundworms.Students should include the fol-lowing in their tables: digestion,locomotion, circulation, excretion,and sensory functions.
Visual Learning■ Make photocopies of the In-
side Story diagram without thelabels and captions. Have stu-dents label and describe thefunctions of each structure onthe photocopy as it is dis-cussed.
Critical ThinkingEarthworms have setae and mus-cles in each segment. They moveby anchoring the setae in theground, then contracting theirmuscles. The earthworm movesby alternately contracting andrelaxing the muscles in each seg-ment.

Circulation and respiration Segmented worms have a closed
circulatory system. Blood carryingoxygen to and carbon dioxide frombody cells flows through vessels toreach all parts of the body.Segmented worms must live in wateror in wet areas on land because theyalso exchange gases directly throughtheir moist skin.
Digestion and excretionSegmented worms have a complete
internal digestive tract that runs thelength of the body. Food taken in bythe mouth passes to the gizzard, a sacwith muscular walls and hard parti-cles that grind soil before the soilpasses into the intestine. Undigestedmaterial and solid wastes pass out the
worm’s body through the anus.Segmented worms also have twonephridia in each segment that col-lect waste products and transportthem through the coelom and out ofthe body. Find out what an earth-worm eats by reading the Inside Story.
Reproduction in segmented wormsMost segmented worms are her-
maphrodites. During mating, twoworms exchange sperm. Each wormforms a capsule for the eggs andsperm. The eggs are fertilized in eachworm’s capsule, then the capsule slipsoff the worm and is left behind in thesoil. In two to three weeks, youngworms emerge from the eggs.Earthworms and leeches both repro-duce in this way.
However, bristleworms and theirrelatives have separate sexes andreproduce sexually, although matingoccurs in only a few species. Usuallyeggs and sperm are released into theseawater, where fertilization takesplace. Young bristleworms hatch inthe sea.
Diversity of Segmented Worms
The phylum Annelida is dividedinto three classes: class Oligochaeta,earthworms; class Polychaeta, bristle-worms and their relatives; and classHirudinea, leeches.
Earthworms Earthworms are the most well-
known annelids because they can beseen easily by most people. Althoughearthworms have a definite anteriorand posterior section, they do nothave a distinct head. Earthwormshave only a few setae on each seg-ment. What does an earthworm looklike internally? You can find out inthe MiniLab on this page.
750 MOLLUSKS AND SEGMENTED WORMS
A Different View of an Earthworm What does an earthworm look like internally? You could look at it many different ways—from the dorsal or ventral side, along the length of the animal (a longitudinal view), or in cross section through a segment.
Procedure! Diagram A illustrates a
longitudinal dorsal view of the internal organs of an earthworm. Note that the segments are numbered.

Origins of Mollusks andSegmented Worms
Fossil records show that molluskslived in great numbers as long as 500million years ago. Gastropod,bivalve, and cephalopod fossils havebeen found in early Paleozoicdeposits. Some species, such as thechambered nautilus, appear to havechanged very little from relatedspecies that lived long ago. Find outhow fossil mollusks are used to date
rocks in the Earth Science Connectionat the end of this chapter.
Annelids probably evolved in thesea, perhaps from larvae of ancestralflatworms. The fossil record for seg-mented worms is limited becausesegmented worms have almost nohard body parts. Tubes constructedby polychaetes are the most commonfossils of this phylum. Some of thesetubes appear in the fossil record asearly as 620 million years ago, as youcan see in Figure 27.12.

4. Leeches have segmented bodies just likeother annelids.
5. Parapodia can be used for swimming orcrawling and in gas exchange.
6. Circular muscles contract to move theworm forward. Longitudinal muscles con-tract to pull the worm’s body along.
Earthworms eat their way throughsoil. As they eat, they turn the soiland provide spaces for air to flowthrough soil. As soil passes throughthe organs of their digestive tract,nutrients are extracted from food andundigested materials pass out of the
worm. The wastes of an earthwormare called castings. Castings help fer-tilize soil.
Bristleworms and their relativesBristleworms and their relatives
are members of the phylumPolychaeta. Polychaetes are pri-marily marine organisms. Each
segment of a polychaete has manysetae, hence the name (polychaetemeans “many bristles”). This classincludes bristleworms, lug worms,plumed worms, sea mice, and fanworms, shown in Figure 27.11. Eachbody segment of a polychaete also hasa pair of appendages called parapodia,which can be used for swimming orcrawling over corals and the bottomof the sea. Parapodia also function ingas exchange. A polychaete has ahead with well-developed senseorgans, including eyes. Eyes rangefrom simple eyespots to larger eyescarried on stalks.
LeechesLeeches are segmented worms
with flattened bodies and no setae.Although these animals can be foundin many different habitats, mostleeches live in freshwater streams orrivers. Unlike earthworms, mostspecies are parasites that suck bloodor other body fluids from the bodiesof their hosts, which include ducks,turtles, fishes, and people. Front andrear suckers enable leeches to attachthemselves to their hosts.
You may cringe at the thought ofbeing bitten by a leech, but the bite isnot painful. This is because the salivaof the leech contains chemicals thatact as an anesthetic. Other chemicalsprevent the blood from clotting. Aleech can ingest two to five times itsown weight in one meal. Once fed, aleech will drop off its host. It may noteat again for a year.

Microsurgeon
Would you like to be able to reattach an accident vic-
tim’s hand? Then you might con-sider a career as a microsurgeon.
Skills for the JobMicrosurgeons use high-
powered microscopes and three-dimensional computer technology tosee and repair tiny nerves and bloodvessels. A microsurgeon in ophthalmologymight repair a retina, while other microsurgeons removetumors deep within a brain, or transplant organs.Microsurgeons who reattach hands, feet, and ears often useleeches after surgery to improve blood flow through the reat-tached body part. Microsurgeons must complete four years ofcollege, four years of medical school, three to five years of aresidency program, and special training in microsurgery. Theymust also pass an examination to become certified.

How do earthworms respondto their environment?
A n earthworm spends its time eating its way through soil, digestingorganic matter, and passing inorganic matter through the diges-
tive system and out of its body. Because earthworms are dependent on soilfor food and shelter, they respond to stimuli in a way that will ensure acontinuous supply of food and a safe place in which to live. These responsesare genetically controlled. In this BioLab, you will design an experimentto determine the responses of earthworms to various stimuli.

Main Ideas■ Mollusks have bilateral symmetry, a coelom, and
two body openings. Many also have shells andsimilar larvae.
■ Most gastropods have a shell, mantle, radula,open circulatory system, gills, and nephridia.Gastropods without shells are protected by acovering of mucus.
■ Bivalve mollusks have two shells and are filterfeeders. They have no radula.
■ Cephalopods have tentacles with suckers, abeaklike mouth with a radula, and a closed cir-culatory system. They include the octopus,squid, and chambered nautilus.

Mollusks
Main Ideas■ The phylum Annelida includes the earthworms,
bristleworms and their relatives, and leeches.They are bilaterally symmetrical and have acoelom and two body openings; some have lar-vae that look like the larvae of mollusks. Theirbodies are cylindrical and segmented.
■ Earthworms have complex digestive, excre-tory, muscular, and circulatory systems.
■ Bristleworms and their relatives are mostlymarine species. They have many setae andparapodia that are used for crawling along.
■ Leeches are flattened, segmented worms.Most are aquatic parasites.
■ Fossil remains of mollusks show that they firstlived 500 million years ago. Fossil records showthat segmented worms first appeared 620 mil-lion years ago.

The present Is the key to the past Becausemollusks are generally well preserved in the fossil record, abundant, easy to recognize, andwidely distributed geographically, they are excel-lent index fossils. Index fossils, together with their modern relatives, can be used to hypothesizeabout ancient climates and environments.
Mollusk shells can also provide informationabout the biotic, physical, and chemical changesthat occur in an ecosystem. Modern mollusks, for example, have been used to determine the source and distribution of various aquatic pollutants.
Mollusks as timekeepers Mollusks can also be thought of as marine timekeepers. A molluskshell grows only along one edge. The pigmentedpatterns produced by the animal along this grow-ing edge rarely change. Thus, the pattern pro-duced is not only specific to the species but alsois a space and time record of the shell-producingprocess of that particular organism.
Mollusk shells can also be used to determinean exact age because these structures contain the radioactive element strontium. By measuringthe amounts of different isotopes of strontium in
the shell, scientists are able to compute theexact age of the organism, and, by exten-
sion, the exact age of the rocks containing the shell.

Fossilized mollusk shells
“Finally, the shells in the Peuquenes or oldestridge, prove, as before remarked, that it has beenupraised 14 000 feet since a Secondary period…”
—Charles Darwin, in The Voyage of the Beagle
Although a few species of mollusks live onland, most mollusks are marine or fresh-
water organisms. How is it, then, that on one ofhis journeys to South America, Charles Darwinfound aquatic mollusk shells thousands of feetabove sea level? This observation by the famousnaturalist helped to support Darwin’s hypothesisthat Earth has changed over time.
Mollusks once ruled earth Mollusks firstappear in Earth’s fossil record more than 500million years ago. By 30 million years later, theseshelled creatures had become the dominant lifeform on Earth. Thousands of species of mollusksevolved to fill available niches. Yet, numerousspecies of mollusks became extinct at the close ofthe Mesozoic era 66 million years ago. Today, theestimated number of mollusk species rangesbetween 50 000 and 130 000.

PurposeStudents will learn how molluskscan be used to determine ancientclimates and environments aswell as radiometric ages.
Teaching Strategies■ Provide students with anassortment of fossil molluskshells as well as living examples ofthese organisms. Allow studentsto use hand lenses to observe thediversity in these organisms,especially the shells. If actualspecimens are not readily avail-able, provide students with color photographs of mollusks.Challenge students to classify theexamples based on the relation-ship between the organisms’shells and soft body parts.Students should be able to iden-tify organisms as belonging to thegastropod, bivalve, or cephalopodgroups.■ Explain, if necessary, themethod of absolute dating.Certain radioactive elementsdecay at a constant rate called ahalf-life. By measuring theamount of the original elementleft and the amount of its decayproduct, the age of a specimencan be determined.■ Have a volunteer explain theobservation made by Darwin.Students should recount that theshells were deposited in a body ofwater, probably an ocean. Earthprocesses, including uplift,caused this area of land, whichwas once below sea level, to beraised thousands of feet above theocean’s surface.
Connection to BiologyMost students should be able todeduce that ammonites are, infact, excellent index fossilsbecause they are readily pre-served as fossils and lived for ageologically relatively shortperiod of time.
