Are mussels and clams parasites

1 Answer

Well, mussels and clams aren't exactly parasites, but they do have a sneaky way of getting their food. They're filter feeders, which means they extract nutrients from the water by filtering out tiny particles like plankton. So, you could say they have a bit of a "lazy" approach to dining, letting the food come to them. But hey, who can blame them? We all love a good meal without much effort, right?
