Bivalve
Period: Jurassic
Age: 206-144 million years
Region: Majunga Basin, Madagascar
These organisms feed by filtering food par-
ticles from water. Their bodies consist of two
symmetrical shells joined by a hinge. They li-
ve in fresh water. Sand mussels and oysters
are also members of this class.
The fossil shows that not the slightest change
has taken place in this life form despite the
passage of between 206 to 144 million years.
If, like other life forms, this one has not un-
dergone the slightest alteration over 206 mil-
lion years, then it is impossible to speak of an
evolutionary process. Bivalves were created
with all the features they possess today.
