In many bivalves and snails, and in cephalopods, part of the mantle is modified into a siphon, which can be used to pump water through the mantle cavity for respiration, feeding and/or jet propulsion. Freshwater and marine mollusks have gills (called ctenidia) for respiration, located in the mantle cavity. In most bivalves, these are enlarged and serve to trap food particles as well (Morton 1983).
Snails, oysters, clams, octopuses, and squids are examples of mollusks. â¢ The body cavity in mollusks is a true coelom. â In animals that have a coelom, the gut and other internal organs are suspended from the body wall and are cushioned by the fluid within the coelom. Respiration â Most mollusks respire with gills, which are located in the mantle cavity. The mantle cavity is a space between the mantle and the visceral mass. â Mollusk gills extract 50% or more of the dissolved oxygen from the water that passes over them.
