Question
in which class is the radula utilized for food scraping?
gastropods
cephalopods
arthropods
Brief Explanations
Gastropods (like snails, slugs) use the radula for scraping food (e.g., algae off surfaces). Cephalopods (e.g., octopuses, squids) have a beak - like structure, not a radula for scraping. Arthropods have mouthparts like mandibles, not a radula. So the class where the radula is used for food scraping is Gastropods.
