Clams can be either fresh water or salt water. (Depends on the species)
The clam in the salt water would not last very long. It needs to be in it's original habitat of water. +++ The poor little animal would probably die of suffocation as it uses up the oxygen dissolved in the water. Also, if the brine is a home-made mix, its strength would probably differ markedly from that of the clam's home sea-water, possibly affecting its ability to absorb what little oxygen is available.
No, the manila clam is saltwater.
pearls are made when a grain of sand gets trapped in a clam. then it eventually grows into a pearl. clams live in the sea, so yes salt water pearls exist.
The clam has two siphons. The excurrent siphon (which expels water and waste out of the clam) and the incurrent siphon (which brings oxygen and food and water into the clam).
Clams (the salt water kind) live in the inter-tidal zone to shallow ocean. Fresh water clams live in the bottom of rivers or lakes.
if you added water to clam chowder it would taste really watery
Salt water animals (save for the few that actually can live in either salt water or fresh water) can not survive in fresh water because their cells are isotonic to the salt water, but they would be highly hypertonic to the fresh water.That is to say, the concentration of salt within the organism's cells would be equal to the concentration of salt in the salt water, but would be far higher than the concentration of salt in the fresh water, and thus osmosis would be triggered, and the cells would "lyce" (when a cell lyces, it means it bursts due to an overabundant amount of water being forced into the cell)
A clam will spray a stream of water when disturbed. Also, a clam will shut it's shell tightly when disturbed.
The Geoduck squirts water. The rest just clam-up
The sex glands help the water over the gills which causes the clam to have an orgasm and then have and erection. The orgasm splatters everywhere and tickles the clam.
