Explicar el desarrollo de una concha. ¿Cuánto tiempo viven los moluscos?


In those molluscs which have a shell, the shell grows gradually over the lifetime of the mollusc by the addition of calcium carbonate to the leading edge or opening, and thus the shell gradually becomes longer and wider, in an increasing spiral shape, to better accommodate the growing animal inside. The animal also thickens the shell as it grows, so that the shell stays proportionately strong for its size.


7

Dar algunos datos sobre la vida de un caracol Strombus pugilis (conchas luchadora) y explicar la razón por la que éste molusco es llamado así.


The West Indian Fighting Conch is an aggressive sea snail with a nasty sting which it uses to defend itself against marine predators. These shells are best collected when the tide goes out, as great numbers of them suddenly emerge from the sand and retreat to the surf. If one is flipped over, it can right itself using its sharp operculum.


8

Explicar las actividades del molusco broma.

9

¿Cómo se explica la distribución de los moluscos?


molluscs have few requirements in order for them to thrive. They need moisture, but if they find themselves in a dry environment, they are able to seal themselves (and their moisture) inside their shells until external moisture becomes available again. Thus, molluscs can be found in nearly every habitat on Earth - even deserts!

Nombrar seis usos comerciales de las conchas (moluscos).


Musical Instruments
Key touches and various decorations on musical instruments such as saxophones, trumpets, violins, banjos, tamburitzas and guitars are sometimes made of mother of pearl. It is used as inlays on many guitar fretboards.
Clothing
Mother of pearl buttons can be found on a variety of clothing such as shirts, skirts and coats.
Decorative Inlays
Nacre is also used as a decorative feature of watch faces, knives, guns and jewelry.
Building Material
Instead of using a marble or tile base, the mother of pearl tesserae can be glued to a fiberglass mesh. The result is a lightweight material that offers a seamless installation, and there is no limit to the sheet size. Mother of pearl sheets may be used on interior floors, exterior and interior walls, countertops, doors and ceilings. Insertion into architectural elements, such as columns or furniture is easily accomplished. Conch shells are occasionally used as a building material, either in place of bricks or as bulk for landfill.
Jewelry
Pearls are highly prized jewelry components.
Souvenirs
In some countries, cleaned Queen Conch (Strombus gigas) shells or polished fragments are sold, mainly to tourists, as souvenirs or in jewelry. Without a permit, however, export is a breach of CITES regulations and may lead to arrest. This is most likely to occur on return to the tourist's home country while clearing customs. In the UK conch shells are the ninth most seized import.
Pets
Snails are often kept in aquariums along with fish.

Realizar una de las siguientes actividades:
a. Personalmente encontrar y recolectar 40 especies de conchas que representan a las cinco clasificaciones. Hacer una lista de cada molusco con el lugar y la fecha en que fue encontrado, nombre común, nombre científico y la clase.
b. Hacer una colección de 50 especies de conchas que ha encontrado, recibido o comprado que representen las cinco clasificaciones.
Hacer una lista de cada concha recogida de la siguiente manera: si la encontró personalmente, dar la información solicitada en el punto «a»; si la recibió o compró, dar el nombre de la persona de quien recibió la concha, el hábitat de la concha, la fecha de su adquisición, su nombre común, nombre científico y la clase.


The best approach here is to get a good field guide and then try to identify the shells you have found.

If you opt to purchase your collection, one possibility is to start with a kit containing specimens from all five of these classes. Seashells.com carries a such a kit, reasonably-priced.
