AI overview

A seashell is the hard outer covering produced by mollusks such as bivalves and gastropods, which wash up on beaches around the world. Seashells matter because they provide protection for living mollusks and can be inhabited by other creatures like hermit crabs after the original animal dies.

貝殼（英語：Seashell），根據英文也可翻譯成海貝，指的是泛指无脊椎动物的外骨骼，它們的共同特點是中空而且堅硬，屬於該動物的原始身體的一部份。在貝殼的主人死亡後，其殼內的肉體會被其他動物食用或自行腐爛，最後被海岸巨浪冲上海灘或沉沒海底。人類直接接觸貝殼的方式通常是在海灘，而大多数海滩上的海贝壳基本都是是软体动物的外殼，例如兩扇貝、牡蠣、海螺等，因为軟體動物中的擁有貝殼的物種數量最多，而且其贝壳的硬度也非常高，以至於很容易被人類發現。
