Other possibility though, which is much more interesting, is looking at bivalves, particularly mussels.

而另一种可能选择就更有意思了， 就是双壳贝类， 尤其是贻贝。

Captain Nemo was obviously familiar with this bivalve's existence. This wasn't the first time he'd paid it a visit, and I thought his sole reason for leading us to this locality was to show us a natural curiosity.

尼摩船长分明是知道这双壳动物的存在。他这个地方来不止一次了，我想他带我们这来是要给我们看一件天然的奇物。

It's more of an issue with bivalves, like muscles and oysters, which we eat whole.

这对双壳类动物来说更像是一个问题，比如我们的肌肉和牡蛎。

So a lot of vegans do eat oysters and those bivalves, you know.

所以很多素食者确实会牡蛎和那些双壳类动物，你知道的。

We've got little seashells and things like bivalves and brachypods.

我们有小的海贝壳和双壳类、腕足类等东西。

Bivalve shells are made to open and shut, but on what a number of patterns is the hinge constructed, from the long row of neatly interlocking teeth in a Nucula to the simple ligament of a Mussel!

双壳贝壳是用来打开和关闭的， 但是铰链的构造有多少种模式， 从 Nucula 的一长排齐互锁的牙齿贻贝的简单韧带！

Bacteria feed on the minerals and produce organic materials, which attracts crustaceans, bivalves, snails, fish, octopus, and tube worms up to 2 meters long.

细菌以矿物质为食并产生有机物质，这吸引了甲壳类动物、双壳类动物、蜗牛、鱼类、章鱼以及长达2米的管虫。
