Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The lophotrochozoan with eight overlapping calcareous plates and a feeding structure called a radula is a chiton. Slugs and gastropods also have radulas, but do not have the overlapping calcareous plates characteristic of chitons. Bivalves have shells made of two parts, not eight overlapping plates, and Monoplacophorans have a single, cap-shaped shell.
