What's the difference between a clam, a mussel, and a mollusk?
Can you tell me the difference between a clam, a mussel, and a mollusk?
Sure! A mollusk is a type of invertebrate animal with a soft body, often protected by a hard shell. Both clams and mussels are types of mollusks, but they differ in their physical characteristics and habitat. Clams typically have a harder, thicker shell than mussels, and they live in sandy or muddy environments. Mussels, on the other hand, have a thinner shell and often live in freshwater or saltwater environments with strong currents.
