Description
SPECIFICATION: This preserved Octopus specimen is kept in a transparent cylindrical container. The octopus is a marine animal that belongs to the phylum Mollusca and the class Cephalopoda. It is widely known for its eight arms, high intelligence, and ability to change color.
- Arms (Tentacles):
An octopus has eight flexible arms lined with suction cups that help it grip surfaces and catch prey. - Body Structure:
The body is soft and sac-like, known as the mantle, and lacks any external skeleton or shell, allowing the octopus to squeeze through tight spaces. - Color Change Ability:
The octopus can change its skin color and texture using specialized pigment cells called chromatophores—used for camouflage and communication. - Intelligence:
It is considered one of the most intelligent invertebrates, capable of solving puzzles, navigating mazes. - Respiration:
The octopus breathes through gills. - Defense Mechanism:
When threatened, it releases a cloud of dark ink to confuse predators and make an escape.
This specimen is typically used in biology studies, marine biology, and zoology laboratories to help understand the structure and characteristics of the octopus.
