A lobster is not a mollusk. Lobsters are crustaceans. A lobster is classified as a crustacean because it can move freely in the water to obtain food. Mollusks do not move about freely in the water to obtain food.
No, they're arthropods, like insects and arachnids. Their jointed legs give them away. Molluscs don't have legs at all (tentacles are not legs :P).
Lobsters are neither echinoderms nor mollusks like clams. They are also not arachnids. Instead, they are crustaceans, a subsection of arthropods.
Both Clams and Octopuses are Mollusks. Clams are under the subphylum Bivalves, and octopuses are cephalopods. Lobsters on the other hand, are not Mollusks. They are crustaceans. Also, an obvious difference is the lobsters exoskeleton.
The shellfish designation includes mollusks (such as clams, mussels, oysters, and squid) and crustaceans (such as crabs, crayfish, lobsters, and shrimp)
An octopus is a mollusk. Mollusks have soft bodies. Some other examples of mollusks include snails and bivalves. A crustacean has a hard shell. Crabs and lobsters are crustaceans. Octopus like to eat crustaceans, but they are mollusks.ya
small fish, shrimp, lobsters, worms, crabs, and mollusks. Many of these creatures roam around day and night, so they aren't hard to find.
This is from wikipedia: Lobsters are omnivores, and typically eat live prey such as fish, mollusks, other crustaceans, worms, and some plant life. They scavenge if necessary, and may resort to cannibalism in captivity; however, this has not been observed in the wild. Although lobster skin has been found in lobster stomachs, this is because lobsters eat their shed skin after molting.[4]
Lobsters are crustaceans, and chitin is the hard polysaccharide substance that makes up the outer shell (exoskeleton) of crustaceans. Chitin also makes up the exoskeletons of other arthropods (insects, etc.). It helps to strengthen the cell walls of fungi and the shells of mollusks as well.
Studies of wild lobsters show that they prefer live prey, such as fish, mollusks, worms and crustaceans, but surgeonfish and lobster don't hang out in the same environments. Lobsters are are bottom feeders found in the cold waters of Alaska and Maine, while surgeonfish are herbivores that prefer warmer coral reefs and feed on algae, you will find them near rocks that get a lot of filtered sunlight.
Answer Shellfish are usually shrimp, clams, crab, oysters etc. They are seafood that has some type of shell covering them.
