Lets think about it because i dont know
npharyngeal slits - digestive tubes extending from mouth to anusnsuspension-feeding devices in many invertebrate chordatesnfood filtered from water is passed by cilia into intestine, anus emptying it, shooting a jet of water/excess through excurrent siphon (urochordates aka sea squirts)
The Alimentary Canaleg. "Food moves along your gut in the digestive system" could be"Food moves along the alimentary canal".Hope this helps! :]
The quahog, also known as the hard shell clam, is Mercenaria mercenaria. The common name, quahog is derived from poquauhock, a Naraganset word. The Algonquin tribes that used the meat of the clam for food, made colored beads from the shells that was used for commerce. And, the species name, mercenaria is similar to the Latin word for commerce/buying, mercatura.
Fungi obtain food through absorption. They secrete enzymes to break down organic matter into simpler molecules, which are then absorbed through their cell walls. Fungi are heterotrophic, meaning they rely on other organisms for nutrients.
from what I've read scientific names are usually made to describe unique characteristics such as the existence of a new species, or body parts unlike other animals. Come to think of it I've never heard a scientific name for a human,rat, or dog mouth (considering 3 of the most studied creatures on earth) a mouth is a mouth
The digestive system has smooth muscle through out it, and they help move the food.
Muscle motion in your digestive system called Peristalsis helps the food to travel through your digestive system.
In clams, food moves through the digestive system starting when water enters the siphon, where tiny particles are filtered out by the gills. The filtered food then moves to the mouth, where it is further broken down by the radula. From the mouth, the food travels to the stomach, where enzymes digest it, and then into the intestine for nutrient absorption. Finally, waste is expelled through the anus.
Water and food particles are drawn in through one siphon to the gills where tiny, hair-like cilia move the water, and the food is caught in mucus on the gills
Digestive
The digestive system prepares food for the bloodstream. The digestive system absorbs food particles and nutrients pass through this system to the bloodstream.
MUSCULAR
That is the organ system: digestive system.
They digest and store food
Water and food particles are drawn in through one siphon to the gills where tiny, hair-like cilia move the water, and the food is caught in mucus on the gills. From there, the food-mucus mixture is transported along a groove to the palps which push it into the clam's mouth. The second siphon carries away the water. The gills also draw oxygen from the water flow.
