Shells are created by (and attached to) soft-bodied mollusks like clams, scallops, oysters, sea snails. The mollusk absorbs minerals from the ocean, then secretes layers of calcium carbonate with proteins to build its shell bigger and stronger as it grows. The shell is what protects the mollusk. When the mollusk dies, the empty shell is left behind and will no longer grow. #seashells #lightningwhelk | Let's Go Shelling

Save this and read below! ⬇️ . Mollusks with double sided shells are known as bivalves (two valves). The orange hinge you see at the bottom is made up of an elastic protein and holds the two shells together, while the mollusk's strong adductor muscles keep the shells closed. . If you see this, the mollusk is very likely to be alive. An empty bivalve could still have it's hinge, but you would see an opening with no animal inside. . Did you know this?

Do seashells survive? ⬇️ . Mollusks and other marine animals can have a daunting experience during storms, and especially during Florida major hurricanes 🌀 . Big storms can cause a hazardous environment for these animals due to strong currents, rainwater intrusion, Ocean pollution, churning sediment and silt, rapid salinity changes due to the mixing of deep and shallow water, and the lowering of oxygen levels. .
