the dorsal part of the body and bounds to the mantle cavity. - A rasping tongue like structure used in feeding! - Body is not segmented - Single shell or no shell - Undergo Torsion in larval life - Does not have a radula or distinct head - Only Mollusks with a closed circulatory System - Active Predators - Bites prey then pulls food into its mouth with radula! ONE ADVANTAGE: -the development and functions of the body can differ. - functions may be - reproduction - excretion - locomotion

Thorax= head - They are composed of hundreds of visual units called ommatidia Ocelli

Segments are specialized in goups called tagmata in goups called tagmata - Fusionof segments is called tagmazaation. - This is the most crucial part in the evolution of anthropods. Abdomen = belly to the end
