Question

What type of feeder is the clam?

Answer 1

Hey!!

Here is your answer:-

❇️ The soft-shelled clam is a suspension or filter feeder. Water is brought into the clam through an intake siphon, which extends from its shell to the surface of the mud.

❇️ As the waterpasses over the gills, oxygen is removed for respiration and small hair-like structures known as cilia trap plankton for food.
