A soft-body invertebrate with a mantle and a foot is a mollusk. Mollusks are a diverse group that includes snails, clams, and octopuses, characterized by their soft bodies, which are often protected by a hard shell. The mantle is a significant body part that secretes the shell and covers the internal organs, while the foot is a muscular structure used for movement and attachment. This group plays vital roles in ecosystems and has various adaptations for survival in different environments.
