A strategy in this case might be to find the
answer yourself in the text, and then look for it in the
answers. Let's try that this time. The paragraph where
mollusks are explained is the first paragraph:
Many
people would probably agree that the most fantastic
invertebrate (animal that lacks a backbone) in all the
seas is the octopus. It is a mollusk, an invertebrate
with a relatively soft body. Many mollusks--clams, oysters,
snails--have protective shells, but the octopus does
not. It's body is shaped like a bag, from which eight
long arms radiate. It is a predator and eats mainly
shellfish and crabs. The bite of most octopus species
is toxic, or poisonous.
