Solution
The correct option is D muscular foot Snails have a strong and thick muscular foot coming out of their hard shell. Snails move by gliding along muscular foot through succeeding waves of muscular contractions that move up and down the foot from their tail to their head. Muscular foot is covered with mucus which helps the snail crawl easily through hard surfaces.
