Why does the ribbed mussel not show any feeding activity during low tide?
The ribbed mussel does not exhibit feeding activity during low tide primarily because it is exposed to air, which can lead to desiccation (drying out). To conserve moisture and protect itself from harsh environmental conditions, it closes its shells tightly. Additionally, the lack of water limits the availability of food particles, such as phytoplankton and organic matter, that they filter from the water. Consequently, these mussels resume feeding only when submerged during high tide.
