All mollusks have a foot, an organ. In a squid the foot is the tentacles it has.
Why tentacled mollusks called cephalopods?
Cephalopod means "head feet" with refers to the fact that their tentacles are connected to their head.
Are squids and octopuses the same animal?
.they are all in the phylum mollusks. This means they are related to taxonomers.
Why aren't octopuses and squids in the same group as jellyfish even though they both have tentacles?
The answer is very simple. Jellyfish are cnidarians. Octopi are not. Because the octopus does not have the same head structure as the jellyfish. Also octopi are cephalopods. They are closer to mollusks in the bases of things but the tentacles are different. Just because they have tentacles does not mean they are in the same categories. But octopi and squid are in the same category as mollusks such as snails. That is a different story though. But that is why they are not the same.
How do octupuses eat?
Suction caps on tentacles/arms to grip and open the shells of crustaceans, powerfull beaks to break shells also.
What two features do cephalopods share with humans that other mollusks do not?
Cephalopods are a phylum of mollusks that include squids, octopi, the chambered nautilus, and cuttlefish. All cephalopods have tentacles, most are carnivores, and they are all mollusks. All mollusks have a radula, or toothy tongue, a mantle, or thin layer of tissue that covers the organs and makes the shell, and a muscular foot.
Are lobsters mollusks?
A lobster is not a mollusk. Lobsters are crustaceans. A lobster is classified as a crustacean because it can move freely in the water to obtain food. Mollusks do not move about freely in the water to obtain food.

What feature makes cephalopods more advanced than other mollusks?
Since cephalodpods are animals such as octopus, squid, and cuttlefish, they usually either entwine their tentacles around their prey to trap it, or they use their suction cups to stick to prey and then consume it.
How many tentacles does a snail have?
Most snails, like many mollusks, have a ribbon-like structure called a radula in their mouths. Radulae have numerous rows of teeth, the exact number of which may vary. Some carnivorous snails eat the soft flesh of other mollusks after using their radulae to bore through the shells of their prey.
Do cuttlefish have suckers on their arms?
Several kinds of mollusks (squid and octopii) have tentacles with suckers.
