Body Mollusks Squids Octupi Slugs Clams Snails Soft

Mollusks (like squids and snails) have soft bodies, often with shells, bilateral symmetry, open circulatory systems, and distinct body parts including a head-foot, visceral mass, and mantle.

Mollusks (e.g., Squids, Snails) have soft bodies often protected by shells, an open circulatory system with hemocoels, bilateral symmetry, distinct body zones (head-foot, visceral mass, mantle), a radula, and typically gills and nephridia.
