Fun Facts!
-The daily activity
pattern of snails is very interesting, they are
usually the most active during dawn and dusk,
and their activity level fluctuates throughout
the night.
- Freshwater Pulmonates have the amazing ability to regulate their
buoyancy by adjusting the amount of air in their
"lung." They use this to sink, float or rise
within the water.
- Mollusks have a kidney located near the heart. They use this to remove
nitrogenous waste from the "blood," it is then
carried via the excretory duct, which runs
alongside the rectum to a pore located at the
mantle edge.
