Mollusks have a well-deserved reputation for being expert mineralizers based only on their much-admired shell-making abilities. Table 6.1 shows that the reputation is deserved 10-fold as shell formation is just one of many different processes that these animals perform in which biogenic minerals are utilized.

AbstractRecent cephalopods are a comparatively small molluscan group with body plans that considerably differ from those of their molluscan allies. Coleoids, i.e. all cephalopods but nautiluses, exhibit cognitive and behavioural abilities that rival those of vertebrates and they possess highly centralized and complex central nervous systems (CNS ...

AbstractWith approximately 15,000 described recent species, Bivalvia is the second largest molluscan class-level taxon. Compared to other conchiferan molluscs, the bivalve body plan has undergone several reductions, such as the lack of a distinct head including radula and buccal muscles, which is also reflected in the relatively simple nervous system ...

The phylum of Mollusca includes a large number of species which are extremely varied in body shape and size. The molluscs are generally known for their soft body, but above all for having a characteristic shell; although, in fact, many species exist which do not have one.
