Very underappreciated animals, I deeply appreciate that you made this video. Sadly I don't think most of the public even view scallops as animals. My only criticism is that the description of the scallop life cycle could have been a bit more detailed and some pictures of the different larval stages would have been appreciated. Otherwise top notch work.

I'm am going to settle this right now. As I read the original comment, I thought to myself "scallops are animals?" And then I thought "yeah, I guess they would be, huh. What did I think they were prior to reading this?" But, I wasn't sure what I had previously thought. I guess I really just never gave it a thought. Then I read the other two comments and I thought to myself "Oh yeah, that's what I previously thought! I thought they were one of those things that made shells." And my last thoughts were "huh??? What really is a sand dollar other than good luck? I wonder if they move like a starfish does or if they just somehow reproduces, lands somewhere on the ocean floor, and then grows?" I promise that I am a reasonably intelligent person and I am well educated but clearly my first two paragraphs do not reflect that. However, I am willing to bet that the OP is right in that many people probably just don't give them a thought. I don't eat anything that lives in the water so that could account for some of my lack of thinking about them. I really am being serious throughout my comment and I am serious now. I have to go look up some information on sand dollars bc I'm the type of person that doesn't like to wonder about something. I want to know about it. I understand how my entire comment to this point would not pin me as a person that likes to absorb as much information as possible. Fair enough.

A brain is just composed of cells that are specialized in transmitting information, you are not just simply your brain, you are your entire body. Michael Levin for example has proved that not only brain cells are capable of holding memory and learning new things, he has shown that skin and muscle cells are capable of doing the same thing but at a smaller scale. Due to his research new theories are reaffirming what was already believed, that memories can be held within organs such as your heart, lungs, gut, and even your skin. So although these species do not have brains, so to speak, it isn't really required because they aren't required to do a lot of complex activities, so you don't need those specialized cells. All the other cells can do the job just fine.

In deeper waters of the California coast you can find rock scallops which attach themselves permanently to rocky structures. The portion attached to the rock is flatter than the opposite side. These rock scallops can get rather large with abductor muscle being very large. I used to dive for them at a depth of 90 feet. Many divers enjoy them raw.

Let's salute the fact that US sea scallop fisheries do their utmost BEST to ruin marine environments. These fisheries are said to be the largest in the world, and harvest scallops by mechanically dragging the bottom of the sea, actually destroying everything down below. Besides, only a small part of the scallop is kept (the muscle), and the rest is immediately chucked back overboard. Another splendid illustration of the American ethics of exploiting, wasting and spoiling!
