Question

read the text.
mollusks form an incredibly diverse phylum of animals. some of the most familiar classes of mollusks are bivalves, like clams and mussels; cephalopods, like squid and octopuses; and gastropods, like snails and slugs. these three classes help illustrate the diversity that exists within mollusks. bivalves have soft bodies protected by two hard shells and are often filter feeders, meaning they strain their food from the water. cephalopods, in contrast, are carnivores. they eat other animals. they have tentacles and a complex nervous system. some cephalopods have well - developed eyes, which they can use to hunt their prey. unlike cephalopods and bivalves, gastropods are hard to describe. even among the mollusks, gastropods are considered diverse. like the garden snail, many gastropods move on a muscular foot and have a hard, protective shell. of all the classes of mollusks, interestingly, only gastropods have species that live on land.
which term matches the picture?
image of a cephalopod - like creature
bivalve
cephalopod
gastropod

Explanation:

The text describes cephalopods as having tentacles, a complex nervous system, and some with well - developed eyes (like squid, octopuses). The picture shows an animal with tentacles, which matches the description of a cephalopod. Bivalves have two hard shells and are filter feeders, and gastropods like snails have a muscular foot and a protective shell (and some live on land), so the animal in the picture is a cephalopod.

Answer:

cephalopod
