Solution

Bivalve

Explanation:

  • Bivalves (like mussels, clams, and oysters) are molluscs that have a body enclosed in two hard calcareous (calcium carbonate) shells.
  • Nereis is a soft-bodied annelid worm, a shark has a cartilaginous skeleton, and Herdmania has a tunic (test) made of tunicin, not a hard calcareous shell.
