Mollusks are primarily externally shelled organisms, with many species possessing a hard external shell made of calcium carbonate. However, some mollusks, like octopuses and squids, have reduced or internalized shells. Overall, they exhibit a wide variety of body structures, but their classification as externally or internally shelled depends on the specific type of mollusk.
