About Limpets. The limpet is a mollusk and it is a member of Acmaeidae family. The limpets can be found throughout littoral zones and they are usually found on rocks near seas or oceans. The limpets have a flat shell and they stick on the rocks by using a muscular foot which allows them to remain attached on rocks if a big wave comes.

Spiders must be absolutely heartbroken â their silk is no longer the toughest material on Earth. Limpet teeth are the new hotness, researchers from the University of Portsmouth found. The teeth of the tiny aquatic lumps are so insanely tough they could be copied to make the cars, boats and planes of the future. Researchers at the University of Portsmouth examined the mechanics of limpet teeth by pulling them apart all the way down to the level of the atom.
