Myalgia: The prefix Myo = Muscules the suffix:Lgia= Pain\nso it means mascular pain.\n\nMucosa: Mucosa is moist tissue that lines particular organs and body cavities throughout the body (eg, the inner cheek) ,Glands along the mucosa secrete mucus (a thick fluid). Like the skin covering the body from the outside mucosa covers the body from the inside!\nHyperimea= mild inflamation.\nso mucosal hyperimea= inflamation of the mucosal tissues.\n\nErythmatous rash: Erythema= Red so the meaning is reddish rash.\n\nDesquamation: The shedding of the outer layers of the skin. For example, once the rash of  measles fades, there is desquamation. The word comes from the Latin "desquamare" meaning "to scrape the scales off a fish."\n\nEmpyema:the suffix pyema= pus\nIt's severe infection of the lungs leading to accumilation of pus (inflammatory fluid) around the lungs leading to breathing difficulties.

Mollusks are triploblastic protostomes. The principal body cavity is a blood-filled hemocoel. It is unknown whether they have a true coelom (eucoelom); any coelomic cavities have been reduced to vestiges around the hearts, gonads, and metanephridia (kidney-like organs). The body is often divided into a head, with eyes or tentacles, a muscular foot and a visceral mass housing the organs.\n\nMollusks have a mantle, which is a fold of the outer skin lining the shell, and a muscular foot that is used for motion. Many mollusks have their mantle produce a calcium carbonate external shell and their gill extracts oxygen from the water and disposes waste. All species of the phylum Mollusca have a complete digestive tract that starts from the mouth to the anus. Many have a feeding structure, the radula, mostly composed of chitin. Radulae are diverse within the Mollusca, ranging from structures used to scrape algae off rocks, to the harpoon-like structures of cone snails. Cephalopods (squid, octopuses, cuttlefish) also possess a chitinous beak. Unlike the closely related annelids, mollusks lack body segmentation.\n\nDevelopment passes through one or two trochophore stages, one of which (the veliger) is unique to the group. These suggest a close relationship between the mollusks and various other protostomes, notably the Annelids.\n\nMollusk fossils are some of the best known and are found from the Cambrian onwards.

Erm... not a whole lot. I don't think they're generally all that smart.  Sorry, I know that's not what you meant...\n\nSome species of molluscs are being studied in a laboratory at LSU because they apparently have some interesting defense against a certain state of V. vulificus (which I assume is some sort of paracite, although I don't know for sure).  For more information see http://www.upei.ca/cai/mollusc-june05.htm\n\nThere was also a new antibiotic was isolated from the common do whelk mollusc at some point (the article doesn't actually give a date).  A little more information at http://media.uow.edu.au/archive/oldbytes10/extra/extra9.htm\n\nThere are also several species of molluscs that are posionous (I think most produce neurotoxins), and are studied as the cause of rather than the cure for conditions.\n\nAnd for entertainment purposes: medical advances *for* mulluscs\nhttp://www.upei.ca/cai/mollusc-june05.htm\n\nOK kunwarrarra, you may have won the bird question (taxonomy rather arbitrary anyway if you ask me), but I beat you here. :)

According to the Harmon and Holman Handbook to Literature:\n\nMetaphor: An analogy indentifying one object with another and ascribing to the first object one or more of the qualities of the second.\n-Basically it is a comparison to make a point or create an image.\n\nSymbol:  Something that is itself and also stands for something else.  In the literary sense, a symbol combines a literal and sensuous quality with an abstract or suggestive aspect.

<>Actually, this is not as easy as I thought it would be.  Here're a couple sites to look at.  I'll see if I can find more.\nPS: I guess it would be easier if you were to specify a particular bivalve.  There is a variety of articles on different ones here:\nhttp://www.student.loretto.org/zoology/Bivalve.html\nhttp://cars.er.usgs.gov/Region_5_Report/html/bivalves.html\nhttp://www.esg.montana.edu/dlg/aim/mollusca/bivalve.html\nhttp://www.chesapeakebay.net/info/hard_clam.cfm\nhttp://www.aquaticinvaders.org/nan_browse.cfm?level=4&key=030201000000\nhttp://www.aquaticinvaders.org/nan_browse.cfm?level=4&key=030201000000
