Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Motile larvae are not a strategy employed by organisms to reduce wave shock in the rocky intertidal zone, but rather a dispersal adaptation to colonize new habitats. The other choices - attachment threads, muscular foot, holdfasts, and suction - are all mechanisms used by intertidal organisms to anchor themselves to the substrate and reduce the effect of wave action.
