Vocabulary practice flashcards covering anatomical terminology, physiological structures, and taxonomic classifications for the BOMO lab exam.

A structure on mussel gills that takes food to the mouth in a string of mucus.

Food groove

Siphon with frills on the side to prevent icky stuff from going in, located on the short, forward-end of the mussel.

Mussel incurrent siphon

A smaller siphon located above the frilly siphon, moreso on the top of the mussel rather than the side.

Mussel excurrent siphon

The white sheets in a mussel that transport food down to the food groove when food is placed on them.

Gills (Mussel)

The sessile body form of Cnidaria.

Polyp

The mobile body form of Cnidaria.
