I want to know the exact reason for the snails poo being the colour of what it eats. Tell me the scientific reason

Since you said please help, I will try to answer this question. A snail does not have the same kind of digestive tract as a more highly evolved species of animal. Therefore by nature, a snail being a more primative animal will lack certain enzymes which break down its food matter for absorbtion to provide fuel for its other living cells. This means that the animal can only extract some nutrients from its food source resulting in a partial digestion. therefore the feces from a snail may appear similar to the original food source both in texture and in color.

The dark brown color of soils is due to humus. Humus is the organic part of the soil, formed mostly by humic acids, the result of organic matter degradation. Those acids are brown in color. Other non-humic components include cellulose, chitin, lignins, also brownish in color. \nThe color of stools depends partly on the bilirubins (produced by the degradation of red blood cells). Bilirubins are filtered from the blood by the liver, secreted into the gall bladder and finally added to the digested food when it goes through the small intestin. \n\nIt's true that decomposed organic matter tends to look brownish. This could reflect the fact that many of the colored compounds are "useful" and costly to produce, and are not usually just dumped into the wastes. When one sees colors, it suggests "life"; and those substances usually involve pigments and/or vitamins that are reabsorbed or recycled.\nBut that's not to say that our waste matter does not represent a source of energy for those organisms with more efficient nutrition systems!

eggs.  snail eggs are usually clear with black specks and they look like blobs of clear gel.

Wrong!\n\nSee:\n\nhttp://www.abc.net.au/rn/science/ss/stories/s1330617.htm\n\neg:\n\n"Now since the dog’s eye is tuned for night, at night with low intensity levels you really don’t need very much in the way of colour. But of course dogs also hunt during the day, so what evolution has done is, you know, everybody gets the feeling that dogs are colour blind and somehow or other they see just in shades of grey. Well that’s not the way the game is set up. Dogs actually do have some colour vision, it’s just they have less colour vision that we do and they see fewer colours and they are probably a lot weaker than ours. So the dog sees the world in shades of blues and greys and oranges and yellows and the darker yellows might sort of fade down to something which we might call a brown, but they don’t see the oranges or the reds, they don’t see the greens and that sort of thing.\n\nIt drives me absolutely crazy. Right now the favourite colour for dog toys is red or that bright safety orange which you see in traffic columns and safety vests and that sort of thing. Well the thing is - to the dog’s eye that red is the same colour as the grass which the toy is supposed to land on, the only difference is that it’ll appear to be a little bit darker so it’ll be a slightly more brownish yellow than the yellow of the grass. So you buy this new toy and you throw it and Lassie goes tooling past it and you say to yourself, My God, my dog’s become an idiot or it’s just being obstreperous. Well no, the colour was there to catch the human eye: it’s absolutely useless with an dog’s eye. You’d be better off with blacks and whites."\n\nMore on the page, about dog senses.

Green poop can be caused by eating green or blue things in excess, like Fruity Pebbles cereal (eat a half a box in a day and your poop will turn green), lots of blue frosting on a cake, or anything else with blue dye in it.  Because blue is a part of green, the blue dye interacts with the natural color of poop to make it green.\n\nBabies often have poop of various colors due to things in their diet and adults can as well.  Poop comes in a variety of colors from light yellow to black, even white.  Truly black poop would be  bad sign, possibly indicating internal bleeding.  White poop comes from things like barium milkshakes and enemas given as a part of a diagnostic gastrointestinal x-ray.

snails have a shell, slugs doesn't

Interesting, my poop has never been green.  My babies poop was green untill we started feeding her baby food.  So it might have to do with your diet.

This is actually a fair question.  First, 'poop' is brown because it is a mixture of green and rusty red.  The red comes from retired blood cells that are being excreted.  The greenish yellow is from bile, a substance present in your digestive system.  When there is significantly more bile than retired blood, the poo is more green (this is my many babies have green poo, their bodies aren't old enough to have retired enought red blood cells).  Bile 'overload' is somewhat rare, but is not a health issue.  If you experience abdominal cramping, dark/black stool or stool that is very thin (perhaps no thicker than a pencil) these can signs of very serious medical problems.  But for now, you're probably fine. Regards :)

The shell. the yolk is clear untill you cook it. but the eggshell is white. Unless it's brown

Your friend is correct. The starfish in question is a large spiny species called the Crown of Thorns (Acanthaster planci).  It can reach 3 feet in diameter.  Most snails don't eat starfish, but one does, namely the Pacific Triton (Charonia tritonis).  It would be bad enough if these large snails actually were overcollected for food.  But that is not the case.  They have been overcollected primarily for their large and beautiful shells, which are sold in gift shops and tourist shops all over the world, as decorative items.  The species is now protected in many areas, including the Great Barrier Reef, and is now making a successful comeback. \n\nHere’s a pic of the Crown of Thorns:\n\nhttp://ryanphotographic.com/images/JPEGS/Acanthaster%20planci%20Crown-of-thorns.jpg\n\nHere’s the living snail attacking a Crown of Thorns:\n\nhttp://members.cox.net/arniesdca/shells/charoniaOnCrownofTh.jpg\n\nAnd here’s a picture of the triton shell:\n\nhttp://www.conchking.com/Pacific%20Trtons.jpg\n\n.

This is a long story so hold on and bear with me OK?\nThe lancet fluke (Dicrocoelium lanceolatum) belongs to the order Trematoda. Like other flukes, scientifically called trematodes, it as well shows a generation cycle with a change of reproduction as well as a change of hosts. The terminal host are mammals, usually sheep or goats. The distribute the fluke's eggs by their excrements on plants, on which snails feed. Those snails again are the intermediate host. . \nThose snails, mostly hygromiid snails of the species Helicella or enid snails (Zebrina), take in the flukes eggs together with their food. In the snail's digestive gland the fluke' first larval generation hatches. That generation is called miracidium. A miracidium is a simply built larva with few resemblance to the adult fluke. It is able to swim or at least to float by a ciliar crest. The miracidium makes a metamorphosis inside the snail, resulting in the next larval stage, that more resembles the adult fluke. The so called cercary has got a tail that propels it in the water. The cercaries change themselves in endurance stages called cystes, that the snails surrounds with a mucus layer and excretes them.\nRed ant (Formica rufa). Source: Manfred Eidelloth.   \nAnts eat those mucus balls (obviously the mucus contains also certain pheromones that makes it highly attractive to ants) and then are afflicted by the cercaries. The cercaries grow in the ants' abdomen (terminal body part) and then one of them moves into the head. There they afflict the ant's nervous system and cause a change of behaviour, that makes Bernard Werber *) call them "zombie ants". The ants now, very untypically, climb up plant stems and attach themselves with their mandibles to exposed positions such as leaves. Grazing mammals, such as sheep or goats, eat the plants together with the ants and then infect themselves with the lesser liver fluke. Inside this terminal host the cercaries change into the fluke's adult stage which reproduces sexually and then lays eggs that are excreted by the mammal -  the generation cycle is closed when the next snail eats the eggs.

i think its because they feed on small fish that are visible from over the sea, or maybe they love what the humidity does to their hair/ feathers\naksugar06 what the hell are you talking about

it's from the bile in the stomach ... also, some food-borne bacteria can create significantly colored waste

hey talking to me should cheer you up! lol jk... but guess what? margarine is only 1 molecule away from being plastic. seriously. not like that's particularly funny, but it's interesting!! if you leave margarine out for flies or bugs, none will come to it. it will just sit there, like plastic. eating margarine is like melting down a kid's sippy cup and spreading it on your toast. lol just thought you'd like to know...

Its brown colouration comes from a combination of bile and dead red blood cells. In newborn babies, fecal matter is initially yellow/green after the meconium. This colouration comes from the presence of bile alone. In time, as the body starts expelling excess dead red blood cells, it acquires its familiar brown appearance. Throughout the life of an ordinary human, one may experience many types of feces. A "green" and sometimes "clay-like" appearance to the feces is a result in a lack of blood cells expelled. Bile overload is very rare, and not a health threat. Food may sometimes appear in the feces. Common undigested foods found in human feces are seeds, nuts, corn, and beans, mainly for their high fiber content.

i can answer two of the three...\nE.coli in a nutrient broth causes cloudyness because it uses the nutrients to reproduce and grow the denseness of the bug causes the previously amber clear liquid to become turbid (just like when you add dirt to water it becomes turbid) \n\naerosols in micro are tiny droplets of liquid possibly a organism that are released in the air (an everyday example are some hairsprays are aerosol)
