Anatomy

I think this article needs to include more bivalve anatomy. It's hard to think of these things without any head or body parts as relatives of snails and octopodes. What body parts make them up besides a mantle and a foot?

Oops

big ass? (see 1st sentence, 3rd paragraph) "Bivalves lack a radula and feed by siphoning and filtering big ass particles from water."

This page was redesigned at the edge.

A page that knows where it met you.
