| Our examples are taken from recent investigations of two key components of rocky intertidal communities, mussels and whelks. |
| So I piled Darren and Rob into the car and we headed down to Margate for some whelks and jellied eels. |
| At Strawberry Hill, whelks had higher body temperatures and higher Hsp 70 pools than those at Boiler Bay. |
| Abalone does not have a blood-clotting mechanism, and even if slightly damaged it will continue to bleed until found by scavenging whelks. |
| Discover the survival techniques of whelks, worms, wentletraps, and other marine creatures. |
| Think of molluscs and chances are it is shellfish such as limpets, whelks, scallops and mussels that spring to mind. |
