- In the different lineages of molluscs, it is easy to understand the variations from the basic organizational plan in relation to the lifestyles of the organisms. For example, the clam is a buried living organism that feeds by filtration and the cuttlefish is a free predatory organism. The organization of Lamellibranchs and Cephalopods can then be related to these lifestyles.ndicate in a short text : Adaptations to predation in cuttlefish (and by extension in cephalopods)arrow_forwardCnidaria is much more diverse than Arthropoda."
