The limpet has only one shell, making it a univalve. Molluscs with two shells, such as clams and mussels, are bivalves.
Its neither.Its actually a Gastropod.
A mussel is a bivalve, which means it has two shells that are hinged together to protect its soft body.
One has one and one has two
An oyster - bi (stand for two) and valves (stands for shells) - two shelled animals.
Strictly speaking, no, though an organism cannot simultaneously be both.
Bivalves, univalves, and cephalopods are all types of mollusks. So are gastropods.
Limpets are snails with a broadly conical shell which is not coiled, or appears not to be coiled. Limpets, theoretically are therefore a form of snail. All snails are known to be bivalves so i presume that limpets are also bivalves. I hope this answers your question ! This answer is totally wrong...... The correct one is:limpets are gastropods that contain one flat shell. They have one flat foot that lies under the body and this foot helps in digging.they are herbivores that feed on algae and plants and have a tongue like structure with rows of teeth that helps in digging. That's all i know.... I hope it is helpful to you..:) <3
Neither. while its true that moon snails consist of only one shell, they are classified as gastropods and not bivalves. Bivalves are clams, mussels, scallops and oyster, all having 2 shells, while gastropods are snails.
yes
Mussels are bivalve.
mollusk
It can. It depends what kind of limpet it is.
