We have been learning about how to write explations:
We looked at how real snails move and then took notes these are my notes:
- The snail uses their one foot to push them along.
- They move side to side which is called undulating
- Snails mostly move on a flat surface
- When they move they make a trail of slime called mucus
- The snail trail is stick this allows they to travel upside down, Sideways and straight
- The slime protects them when they move along.
- They have lines underneath their body.
- They have an shell so when they are moving an preditor can't bite them because the shell is in the way.
- Snails eat a variety of food found in their natural habitat.
- Land snails move by gliding along their muscular foot. This motion is powered by succeeding waves of muscular contractions that move down the ventral of the foot.
- They leave a slimy trail behind.
- Snails have a curly spiral on their shell
- Snails eat a variety of food found in their natural habitat.
- Alot of people find snails gross and ugly.
- one of the main reasons why snails die is because they become food for other animals.
- Most of their body of the snail is called the foot.
- A snail moves on his slime/ mucus when he goes fast the snail's mucus becomes more slippery and it can go even faster.
- As they move the mucus comes out of the front right out of an hole in the foot.
- It can live from 5-25 years depending if an bird of animal eats them.
Here are some pictures we took white looking at the snails:
