molluscan research

Molluscan research involves studying mollusks, a diverse group of animals including snails, clams, squids, and oysters. Scientists explore their biology, behavior, ecology, and evolution to understand how these animals grow, reproduce, and adapt to their environments. This research also examines their ecological roles, such as filter-feeding and habitat formation, as well as their benefits to humans, like food, pearls, and biotech applications. Additionally, molluscan studies can inform conservation efforts, improve aquaculture, and inspire innovations in materials and medicine by analyzing their unique structures and functions.
