Biology
1 answer:
Elodia [21]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It is called pen and it is located at the dorsal side

Explanation:

Squid belongs to the class Cephalopoda, subclass Coleoidea which is characterized by internal shell (unlike subclass Nautiloidea in which shell is located externally).

The shell of the squid (the pen) in very reduced and small, formed from chitin and located at the dorsal side. The pen provides attachment for muscles and it gives the squid stiffness.

Most likely, this internal shell evolved from the  external shell, because it is believed the ancestral of the organisms from the Coleoidea was probably nautiloid-like.

What do you think will happen to an egg after being in water for three days? Be sure to give a reason for your hypothesis.
Juli2301 [7.4K]
I wouldn’t think anything would happen because the egg has a shell. I would imagine that the shell is unlike a cell membrane because its job is to not allow substances in. Accordingly, it would not have any properties of a cell membrane; low permeability and protein channels absent would mean that processes such as osmosis, diffusion, active transport wouldn’t be possible. Effectively, water can’t move in or out so the egg won’t shrink and shrivel up or swell and burst due to the movement of water out or into the egg (cell) respectively.
