QUÉ SIGNIFICA SNAIL SHELL EN INGLÉS

Gastropod shell

Gastropod shell

La cáscara del gasterópodo es una cáscara que sea parte del cuerpo de un gastrópodo o del caracol, una clase de molusco. La cáscara del gasterópodo es un esqueleto o un exoesqueleto externo, que sirve no sólo para la fijación del músculo, pero también para la protección contra depredadores y de daño mecánico. En los caracoles terrestres, en algunos caracoles de agua dulce y en los caracoles marinos intertidal, la concha es también una protección esencial contra el sol, y contra la desecación. La mayoría de las cáscaras de gasterópodos están enrolladas en espiral. El arrollamiento suele ser diestro, pero en algunos taxones el arrollamiento es zurdo y en muy pocas especies puede haber individuos diestros y zurdos. La cáscara del gasterópodo tiene varias capas, y se hace típicamente del carbonato de calcio precipitado hacia fuera en una matriz orgánica conocida como conchiolin. La cáscara es secretada por una parte del cuerpo del molusco conocido como el manto. Algunos gasterópodos son sin cáscara, pero la mayoría de los gasterópodos tienen una concha. En casi todos los casos la cáscara consiste en una sola pieza, y típicamente se enrosca en espiral, aunque algunos grupos, tales como las varias familias y los géneros de lapas, tienen cáscaras cono-cono simples como adultos.

The gastropod shell is a shell which is part of the body of a gastropod or snail, one kind of mollusc. The gastropod shell is an external skeleton or exoskeleton, which serves not only for muscle attachment, but also for protection from predators and from mechanical damage. In land snails, in some freshwater snails and in intertidal marine snails, the shell is also an essential protection against the sun, and against drying out. Most gastropod shells are spirally coiled. The coiling is usually right-handed, but in some taxa the coiling is left-handed and in a very few species there can be both right-handed and left-handed individuals. The gastropod shell has several layers, and is typically made of calcium carbonate precipitated out into an organic matrix known as conchiolin. The shell is secreted by a part of the molluscan body known as the mantle. Some gastropods are shell-less, but the majority of gastropods do have a shell. In almost every case the shell consists of one piece, and is typically spirally coiled, although some groups, such as the various families and genera of limpets, have simple cone-shaped shells as adults.
