L'effet «imposex». Les organismes les plus sensibles à la contamination par le TBT [tributylétain] sont les gastropodes(groupe de mollusques comprenant les escargots, les patelles, les buccins et les conques), qui subissent des transformations morphologiques quand ils sont exposés à des concentrations de TBT de 1–2 ng/L [nanogram/liter] dans l'eauou quand les concentrations de TBT dans les tissus animaux atteignent 20 parties par milliard en poids sec. L'effet«imposex» est l'impositionet le développement de structures reproductrices mâles, tels le pénis et le canal déférent, chez les buccins femelles. On a constaté que plus de 40 espèces sont touchées par l'effet«imposex», bien que l'influencedirecte du TBT n’ ait pas été établie dans tous les cas. 1, record 1, French, - effet%20imposex

Although sometimes found in stagnant water, apple snails are more common in lakes and rivers where the water is clear and high in oxygen. These large, herbivorous snails usually breathe with their gills, but they can also obtain oxygen from the air through a lunglike structure in the mantle. After mating, a female apple snail lays masses of 1/4-inch eggs on plant stems and low branches near water. The young snails drop into the water after hatching. 1, record 3, English, - apple%20snails

Si on les trouve parfois en eau stagnante, les escargots pommes préfèrent les lacs et les cours d’eau clairs et bien oxygénés. Ces gros gastropodes herbivores respirent avec leurs branchies, mais aussi avec un organe du manteau qui leur permet de retirer l'oxygène de l'air. Après l'accouplement la femelle pond des masses d’œufs de 6 mm(1/4 po) sur des tiges ou des rameaux près de l'eau. À l'éclosion, les petits escargots tombent dans l'eau. 1, record 3, French, - escargots%20pommes
