Structure Descritption Function The connection bumb at the anterior end At the top of the hinge ligament A joint on the back of the shell. Outer Anatomy Hinge Ligament Umbo Dorsal Ventral Anterior Holds the valves together The oldest and most worn part of the shell The top rim near The thin Rim the hinge on the edge at back of top valve shell The outer rim of Where the clam the clam shell meets, and where that surrounds it opens the rest of the clam Located at each The end head of end of the clam clam NO particular function Located on the right side of the clam Small hole on the right side of the interior anatomy On top of foot Small muscles that contract and relax Small hole under the gills Holds the clam shut tight when needed Takes water in to the clams system Second largest organ with small air wrinkles Organ with wave like rims at end Allows the clam to breathe Topside of clam Where the valves fit together to block out predators Opens for water to enter Inner Anatomy Anterior Adductor Muscle Incurrent Siphon Gills Foot Mantle Cavity Excurrent Siphon Bottom of clam, under other organs The hollow space on the left valve Small hole on the left of the interior anatomy of the clam Empty space on left valve Small hole on left under heart Extends outside clam, allowing it to burrow Has spare space Allows water to leave the clams system Posterior Muscle Left of inner clam Muscles near left of clam Mantle The base right valve of clam Hollow space on top of clam A flaplike structure that guides food into the mouth The part of the clam that if feeds from. The foot pulls the foot in for help Where the food is digested and turned into nutrients The area of the clam where nutrients is absorbed Coils of the clam that help with digestion Waste leaves the clams system A flaplike or tissue area near mouth Guides food to the mouth A small hole with the esphogus connected Food enters the clams system Middle of digestive gland The second stage of digestion The green area near the foot of the clam Absorbs nutrients Coils near the stomach The take in nutrients and move waste Excretes waste DISSECTION OF THE FOOT palps mouth stomach Digestive gland intestines anus Reproductive gland Ostia Pericardial Cavity The gland in the organism where reproduction occurs Small opening orface The cavity where the heart is located Located behind the posterior abductor muscles Yellowish spongy color. Small hole near the heart Area around heart The muscles that help shut the clam and release when relaxed Has no function Reproduction is started here No function Holds the heart in place
