The text in the image describes three types of mollusks: Gastropods, Chitons, and Bivalves. The final paragraph about
Bivalves contains a specific instruction for a task.
Here is the step-by-step breakdown to solve the problem based on that instruction:
1.
Identify the Instruction: The last sentence of the "Bivalves" section says: *"Color the shell of each bivalve."*
2.
Locate the Subject: Look at the illustrations on the page. There are two animals that fit the description of bivalves (mollusks with two hinged shells):
* The
Clam (labeled on the left side).
* The
Oyster (labeled on the right side).
3.
Execute the Task: You need to use your coloring tools (crayons, markers, or colored pencils) to fill in the shells of these two animals.
* For the
Clam, color the oval-shaped shell.
* For the
Oyster, color the rough, irregular-shaped shell.
4.
Note on Other Animals: Do not color the snail/gastropod at the top or the chiton in the middle, as the instruction specifically asks only for the
bivalves.
Final Answer:
Color the shells of the
Clam and the
Oyster.
