1. Shell: The most obvious protective feature, the snail's shell is a hard, calcium carbonate structure that acts as a shield against predators and physical damage.
2. Mantle: While not as visible as the shell, the mantle is a fleshy fold of tissue that covers the snail's internal organs. The mantle secretes the calcium carbonate that forms the shell and also helps to maintain its moisture.
