⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀
The radula (/ˈrædjʊlə/; plural radulae or radulas) is an anatomical structure used by mollusks for feeding, sometimes compared to a tongue. It is a minutely toothed, chitinous ribbon, which is typically used for scraping or cutting food before the food enters the oesophagus.

⭐⭐ RADULA ⭐⭐
It is a thin ribbon shaped body lying in the buccal cavity of molluscs.
It consists of a median stalk and two lateral lobes.
Each lobe bears many rows of chitinous teeth.
→ Radula works like a 'file' and rasps the vegetable food.
