Dr. Dan KillamI once was asked by a kindergartner if clams sleep. I was stumped, and we actually have no idea! We know many bivalves have strong biological clocks, often showing circadian rhythms in activity. But as to whether they sleep? No one knows! #clamFacts
Kpl Klink@dantheclamman In reply, if they dream, might they then dream great dreams of sun, tide and time…
We don’t yet understand sentience but dimly; so who knows if they sleep or perchance to dream.
Smart kid. 🧐
