Chapter 418: Are Clams Carnivorous Animals?
"Automatic Makeup?" Alexander was taken aback by what he heard.
"Yeah!" Ivy grabbed Alexander's hand, blinking her bright eyes.
"Alexander, do you remember the bridal makeup on our wedding day? It wasn't done by Pete, it automatically appeared after I put on the wedding dress. Everyone was amazed, including Pete, but no one knew why."
Alexander was shocked. "What? The makeup that day wasn't done by Pete? Why didn't you tell me this serious matter earlier?"
Ivy felt a bit embarrassed. "I... I wanted to tell you, but then I got busy and forgot. Besides, I thought it was a skill bestowed by the Magic Pearl. After all, my Magic Pearl is a Rainbow Pearl Clam Magic Pearl, and rainbows have five colors, so I assumed it was just five different makeup styles..."
"Well, it seems plausible. Ivy, your makeup has indeed changed now, different from the one you went out with just now," Alexander carefully touched Ivy's face. "The shell of the Rainbow Pearl Clam changes its color with the light, so it's possible that you have automatic makeup because of the Pearl."
Hearing this, Ivy felt much better.
However, after thinking for a while, she still felt something was wrong. "What about consuming raw meat? How do you explain that?"
"Look it up on Baidu, see if clams are carnivorous animals," Alexander said as he picked up his phone to search.
After finding the result, he immediately read it out, "Clams typically live in rivers, lakes, and ponds, and their primary food consists of single-celled algae, protozoa, and organic debris. Clams don't actively feed while they grow; instead, they rely on opening their shells and using water currents to automatically bring in food into their bodies..."
Upon hearing this answer, Ivy became a bit puzzled. She furrowed her brows and asked, "Single-celled algae... protozoa... organic debris... What kind of food is that?"
"Keep searching!" Alexander searched one by one and said to Ivy, "Single-celled algae are primitive plants that reproduce through spores. Their bodies can consist of a single cell, a group of cells, or multicellular structures so small that they can only be seen under a microscope...
Protozoa are the most primitive, simplest, and lowest forms of life, also known as single-celled animals... Organic debris originates from organisms but is not alive. It contains the materials and energy of living organisms, such as undecomposed root and stem debris, insect shells, or tissues of dead organisms..."
After hearing this, Ivy suddenly realized, "So clams are very particular about their food. They not only know the combination of meat and vegetables but also have snacks in between."
"Huh?" Alexander looked at Ivy with confusion. What was this woman talking about?
Ivy said, "Well, single-celled algae can be considered as vegetarian dishes, protozoa can be considered as meat dishes, and organic debris can be considered as snacks. Don't underestimate clams just because they live at the bottom of the river. They have both meat and vegetables to eat, as well as various delicious snacks."
Alexander couldn't help but tremble.
"Eyebrows, are you sure all those snacks are delicious?"
"I'm not sure!" Ivy giggled mischievously and blinked her eyes playfully. "For us, they may not be tasty, but for it, they must be delicious!"
Thinking about the Magic Pearl inside her body, which was 77,000 years old, Ivy said excitedly, "Alexander, since regular river clams eat meat, the Rainbow Pearl Clam definitely won't just eat vegetables! Moreover, it has been alive for 77,000 years and has a size as big as a double bed. It must be eating something more than ordinary meat."
