Snails like other invertebrates do not have spinal cord nor one single brain. Instead they have a set of ganglia (groupings of neurons) that distribute the control of the organism to different areas. For example a snail like other mollusk (phylum Mollusca) have a buccal ganglia to control the mouth.

Snails have what is called a nerve cluster; not complex enough and doesn't have divided structures, yet controls the functions of the snail's body. This cluster of is formed from ganglion, which is naught but a mass of nerve cells.
