If the animals react to water, you should be able to change their behaviors quickly. In the bowl with some periwinkles, tilt the bowl and place about a cup of seawater in it. Slowly right the bowl until the winkles are covered with water. What do they do? Tilt the bowl again to uncover the winkles. Does their behavior change? If it does change, how long does it take for them to move? Be sure to check the tides if your previous experiment showed that they move up and down with the tides.
