Description
*Seashells are the external skeletons of a class of marine animals called Mollusks. Where people have our skeletons on the inside of our bodies, mollusks have theirs on the outside of theirs. This way they help protect the creatures from predators, strong currents and storms, help camouflage the animal, and do many other things. Seashells are primarily made of calcium, a hard mineral, as our own bones are. When a mollusk dies, its shell is left behind, just as land animals leave their skeletons behind. The shell often washes up onto the shore, or remains in the tide pool where the creature lived. (www.seashellsandsuch.com)
