Wrap up/Launch

Oysters start life as male, but many change to female after about a year. This is because their reproductive organs produce both sperm and eggs, allowing them to fertilize their own eggs.Oysters are vegetarians. They eat algae by filtering it out of the water.

Mussels attach themselves to rocks or other mussels using hair-like threads called byssal threads. These threads are made of chitin, a strong fibrous substance.
