The garden snails are dark brown color with a measurement between 3 to 5 cm. Originally, most of the snails were on the top of the lid before retrieved. Under the dissecting microscope, the details of the shell were asymmetrical and smooth. The foot of the snails secreted mucus as they move around the Petri dish. Based on the observation, we hypothesized that these garden snails will move upward if the Petri dish was vertical since it is easier for them to climb upward due to their slime in which lubricate their movement. Also, higher ground will provide them an advantage to seek resources such as food and
