They are soft, hence the name mollusca.

They have either an internal or external shell.

They have a mantle,which is a tissue that covers the body mass of a mollusk.

They are divided into 3 phyla, them being cephalopods, bivavles, and gastropods.

They also have radulae, which act like teeth in mollusks.
