Many types of molluscs are sold as food: cockles, mussels, whelks, conch, clams, scallops, razor shells, land snails (escargots)
No, whelks do not have a backbone. They are mollusks, which means they belong to a class of invertebrates that lack a spinal column. Instead, whelks have a hard shell that protects their soft body.
yes as whelks are not a plant they are therefore consumers :-)
Small fish generally do not eat whelks, as whelks are marine snails with hard shells that are difficult for fish to consume. However, some predatory fish may prey on juvenile whelks or their eggs. In contrast, small fish typically feed on plankton, smaller invertebrates, or plant material rather than larger, shelled organisms like whelks.
