Can you train pet snails?
No, snails don't get trained, the snail's hobby is to move really slowly and hide underneath their shells.
Can snails go from one shell to another?
No. The shell grows around the snail as the snail grows bigger, but the snail is fastened into its shell and cannot leave it. Hermit crabs live in empty shells, and find a new, bigger shell as they grow.
What is the difference between a snail and a tortoise?
The main difference is that snails are mollusks with shells, while tortoises are reptiles with shells. Snails have soft bodies and move by sliding on a single muscular foot, whereas tortoises have hard shells and crawl using their legs. Snails are usually aquatic or terrestrial, while tortoises are exclusively terrestrial.
Do sea snails shed the conch and move into a new conch?
No, a conch is a mollusk which lives in a conch shell ,which it secretes itself. As the conch grows the shell gets bigger too, to accommodate it. Sea snails tend not to have any shell at all and if they do have a shell it is one that they secrete themselves. Hermit crabs live in the empty shells of mollusks and move to a new shell as they grow bigger.
Do atoms get larger as they move downward in a column of Periodic Table?
Yes. Atoms get larger as they move downward in a column of periodic table. This is because of increase in number of shells down the group.
Why does a hermit crab live in a snail shell?
A: Like turtles, snails are attached to their shells. They cannot leave their shells and live. If the body is out of the shell totally, the snail is dead. A few people have sworn their snail was alive, out of the shell, driving around. It must have been the current in the tank making their body appear to move. Snails cannot live out of their shells.

Why is sulfur larger than oxygen?
Sulfur is larger than oxygen because sulfur has more electron shells and therefore a greater atomic radius. This increase in size is due to the addition of electron shells as you move down the periodic table.
What is the differences between snail and turtle?
A snail belongs to the molluscan class and has no bones or limbs. Turtles are reptile and have much harder, larger and flatter shells. Turtles also have limbs in the form of flippers to help move easily through water in the oceans where they live. Snail's are herbavoires and eat a variety of vegetation and fruit on land, but turtles have a diet of either sea grass and algae or sponge's, shrimps and squid, purely depending on the species and location.
