Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Brachiopods have a mantle and two valves that enclose their body; these shells are often symmetrical and can resemble clams or oysters. They are not called bryozoans or wormlike burrowers, and while some brachiopods do live in deep ocean bottoms, they can also be found in shallower waters. While some bryozoans can be colonial, brachiopods are not typically considered colonial organisms.
