Mollusks & Shells

     Mollusks and shells are common items found in the beach. Before this assignment, I didn't know what mollusks were. Mollusks are clams, snails, slugs, or octopus. They are found in the beach because they wash up to shore and like to live buried in sand and dirt. Shells are the remains of these animals, and are sort of like a crust that surround these animals.
