Sea slug

A collective term for marine gastropod molluscs whose shell is absent or reduced to a tiny remnant, covering several groups such as the nudibranchs.
Some sea slugs eat algae and keep the stolen chloroplast inside their own cells. The borrowed chloroplasts can keep doing photosynthesis for weeks or months, giving the animal a temporary solar battery.
