Explanation:

  • All land snails have evolved in various ways to survive.
  • Their key adaption is the change from aquatic to terrestrial (or land) species during their evolution.
  • In order to achieve this, they formed air-breathing lungs after losing their gills.
  • A specific sort of mucus or slime is released by the mucous gland in snails.In order to move around in both water and land settings, snails have developed a mucus-covered, muscular foot adaption.
  • The mucus layer protects the foot from harm and friction against surfaces.
  • During the summer, estivation (or dormancy) is one of the most important methods of adaptation to heat stress.
  • This behavioural modification has the effect of limiting snail activity to not just the agreeable daytime hours but also the agreeable seasons of the year.

5. General Physical Makeup. The five major bodily sections of a snail are as follows:

6. The head, the neck, the foot, the tail, and the visceral hump.

7. Reproduction. Slugs and snails are both hermaphrodites, which means they have both male and female reproductive organs in the same body.
