Best Answer

Some physical adaptations that improve the survival of the octopus are

  • Squeezing into tight places: giant octopuses can be found up to 3 feet (1 m) wide, but the body has no bone except for a small beak used to pry open crabs. If this beak can fit into a crevice, the entire octopus can.
  • Having a strong grip to hold prey: the barbed suckers on its limbs grab tightly
  • Camouflage with surroundings (chameleon-like changes in color)
  • Squirting a dark ink to protect themselves against predators (this is a behavioral adaptation)

Octopus have no bones in their body or arms, which allows them to wiggle and bend into small spaces
