Form and Function: Head-foot
Head foot contains feeding, cephalic
sensory and locomotor organs at the
anterior end.
The head foot contains digestive,
circulatory, respiratory and reproductive
organs in the visceral mass
![Page 8: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Mantle Cavity
Body usually an anterior head, ventral foot and a dorsal visceral mass.
Covered by a fleshy outgrowth of the body wall called a mantle or pallium.
Space between mantle and body is the mantle cavity.
![Page 9: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Head-Foot
Well developed head with mouth and
sensory organs.
Photosensory receptors range from simple
to complex eyes.
Tentacles may be present.
Posterior to the mouth is the locomotor
organ, the foot.
![Page 10: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Radula
Rasping tongue like organ
Rows of tiny teeth-up to 250,000-pointed
backward.
Rasps off fine particles of food from
surface.
Acts as a conveyor belt to move particles to
the digestive tract.

Foot
The foot is usually ventral.
May be used for attachment to substratum
May be used for locomotion
Free-swimming forms have modified the
foot into a wing or a fin-like swimming
agents.
![Page 13: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Mantle and Cavity
Mantle is a sheath of skin on side of body.
Secretes shell when present.
Houses the gills or lungs.
Exposed surface of mantle serves for
gaseous exchange.
Cephalopods use the head and mantle cavity
to create jet propulsion
![Page 14: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Shell
Secreted by mantle and lined by it.
Periostracum is outer horny layer,
composed of conchiolin a tanned protein.
Middle prismatic layer has closely packed
prisms of calcium carbonate
Inner nacreous layer is next to the mantle.
Nacre is layed down in thin layers.
![Page 15: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Internal Structure and Function
Open circulatory system includes a
pumping heart, blood vessels and blood
sinuses. (cavity or hole)
Most cephalopods have a closed system
with a heart, vessels and capillaries.
Sense organs vary and may be highly
specialized.
![Page 16: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Reproduction and life history
Most dioecious
Some hermaphrodactic
Egg hatches and produces a free swimming
trochophore larvae.
In some gastropods and bivalves an
intermediate larval stage the veliger is a
derived state.
![Page 17: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Systems
Skeletal- Mantle may secretes a shell. Use hydrostatic pressure for ventral muscular foot.
Muscles -Ventral muscular foot and other muscles present.
Digestive- complete complex with salivary glands, digestive gland and Rasping tongue (Radula).
Circulatory - Open except for Cephalopoda. Dorsal heart, usually in a pericardial cavity.
Respiratory - Ctenidia (gills) in mantle cavity, respiratory pigment is copper.
![Page 19: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Systems
Excretory- by nephridia usually connecting to the pericardial cavity,
the coelom is usually reduced to the cavities of the nephridia, gonads and pericardium.
Nervous - Nerve ring with various pairs of ganglia—two pairs of nerve cords, one innervating the foot, the other the visceral mass (modified ventral ladder-like system)
Integumentary - Mantle
Endocrine - nervous systems produces hormones.
Reproductive - varied- monoecious, protandric, or dioecious. Larva in marine = trochophore and veliger, in freshwater clam is glochidium.

Gastropod Shell
One piece univalve, coiled
or uncoiled
Apex is the smallest whorl
Whorls become larger and
spiral around the central axis
or columella
Giant marine gastropods can
have a shell up to 60 cm
![Page 24: Phylum Mollusca - Moore Public Schools · Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft) Over 90,000 living species 70,000 fossil species Some are herbivorous grazers Some are predaceous carnivores](https://reader030.vdocuments.pub/reader030/viewer/2022041201/5d4a3d8388c993d57a8bab78/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Gastropods continued
Typically sluggish or sedentary
Shell is a form of defense.
Some produce distasteful or
toxic secretions.
Operculum may cover the
aperture (opening.)
May serve as host to parasites
and may be harmed by larval
stages.

Gastropods-Torsion
Only Gastropods undergo torsion
Torsion moves the mantle cavity from the posterior to the front
of body.
This twists the visceral organs 90 to 180 degrees while in the
veliger larvae stage.
The anus cavity and mantle cavity move from posterior to
anterior opening above the head.
Advantage is that head can be retracted into shell because of
available space.
Disadvantage is that waste is release by anus over the gill
which causes “fouling”

Gastropoda Coiling
Coiling or spiral winding of the shell and visceral mass is
not the same as torsion.
It occurs at the same larval stage as torsion but has a
separate origin.
Shifting the shell upward and back helped balance the
uneven weight distribution.
However, the gill, auricle and kidney of the right side are
lost in most species.
Loss of the right gill allows one solution to the problem of
fouling; Wastes expel to the right.

Feeding Habits
Adaptations of the radula provides much
variation.
Many are herbivorous feeding on plankton
Some scavenge on decaying flesh; others
are carnivorous
Some collect debris as a mucus ball to
ingest; sea butterflies secrete a mucus net.
