Nudibranchs are marine worms that do not have shells. Many of these worms release a foul-tasting poison when threatened. The bright coloration of the nudibranchs warns predators to avoid them.

Based on this information, how has adaptation through natural selection allowed nudibranchs to be successful without a shell?
