Mollusks excrete waste through structures called nephridia, which filter bodily fluids to remove nitrogenous wastes. Nephridia play a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis and are distinct from other anatomical structures such as the outer shell, nerve fibers, and radula. Therefore, the correct answer is option d. nephridia.
