Option B is a testable hypothesis that could be resolved using the scientific process.
Explanation:

- The Coleoidea subclass, which comprises squid, cuttlefish, and octopus, is the principal group of mollusks that have evolved.
- The special majority of molluscs are herbivorous, feeding on algae or using filters. Two feeding methods predominate for people who are grazing. Some consume microscopic filamentous algae and frequently use their radula as a "rake" to gather filaments from the ocean floor. adaptations.
