वर्गीकरण तत्त्वानुसार कोणते वर्गीकरण योग्य आहे ? Which is the correct group from the taxonomic point of view ?
Phylum Mollusca includes organisms like Pila (apple snail), Dentalium (tusk shell), and Sepia/Cutlefish, as well as forms like 'Dentalium/olas' (often spelled as 'Dentalium' or similar mollusks). Thus, 'फोलास, पायला, कटलफिश' represents a correct taxonomic group of Mollusca.

(c)ते फक्त जमीनीवरच राहातात / They are only Terrestrial animals
(d)त्यांना मांसल पाय असतात / They are having muscular foot
