The 2010 taxonomy is known as the Taxonomy of the Bivalvia (Bouchet, Rocroi, Bieler, Carter & Coan, 2010) [citation needed]. The 2010 taxonomy was published as Nomenclator of Bivalve Families with a Classification of Bivalve Families. [1] This was a revised system for classifying bivalve mollusks such as clams, oysters, scallops, mussels and so on.
In several major drug classification systems, these four types of classifications are organized into a hierarchy. [4] For example, fibrates are a chemical class of drugs (amphipathic carboxylic acids) that share the same mechanism of action ( PPAR agonist ), the same mode of action (reducing blood triglyceride levels), and are used to prevent ...
Bivalvia (/ b aɪ ˈ v æ l v i ə /) or bivalves, in previous centuries referred to as the Lamellibranchiata and Pelecypoda, is a class of aquatic molluscs (marine and freshwater) that have laterally compressed soft bodies enclosed by a calcified exoskeleton consisting of a hinged pair of half-shells known as valves.
In 2010 a new proposed classification system for the Bivalvia was published by Bieler, Carter & Coan revising the classification of the Bivalvia, including the subclass Pteriomorphia. [8] However, the following taxonomy represents the current accepted arrangement of this subclass according to the World Register of Marine Species [ 9 ]

Protobranchia is a subclass of bivalve molluscs. [1] It contains the extant orders Nuculanida, Nuculida, and Solemyida.. These are deep water clams of a small and primitive order with a taxodont hinge (composed of many similar, small teeth), generally with a central ligament pit, large labial palps which are used in deposit feeding and the gills used only for respiration, the anterior and ...

Conus magus is an example of a cone snail that has a poisoned harpoon-like projectile which it uses to paralyze prey like small fish. [4] Some organisms, like the Viperfish, are believed to attract small fish or prey by using its photophore. [5] Many different marine organisms have been explored for bioactive compounds.
