if it hasn't moved in a week it is probably dead
The only way to tell if a snail is dead is to sniff the snail, if it gives off a strong, odorous scent, it is most likely dead.
you can tell by it shell
It will stink like dead fish.
TOUCH IT IF IT MOVES OR BUBBLES UP ITS ALIVE
nothing its dead ;)
no a sea snail is faster than a land snail
Because it's dead!
My African Land Snail's whole body partially came out of its shell the night before it gave birth and we assumed it was dead, but underneath the shell we could see small bumps under its skin. The next morning it seemed to have managed to pull itself back inside its shell and was surrounded by lots of snail eggs.
Snails are hermaphrodites, so they are both male and female.

Not necessarily as lots of snails float from time to time. Pick it up and touch the foot with your finger and see if it reacts.
put water in it or shake the snail.
