Two of the hearts are located on the lateral sides, close to the gills. The third, systemic heart, is located on the midline (dorsal to the digestive gland).
An octopus has three hearts. Two pump blood through each of the two gills, while the third pumps blood through the body.
The three hearts of an octopus are called the systemic heart, which pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body, and two branchial hearts, which pump deoxygenated blood to the gills for oxygenation.
Three-chambered hearts have two atria and one ventricle. The two atria receive blood from the body and lungs, while the single ventricle pumps blood out to the body and lungs. This type of heart is found in some reptiles and amphibians.
The scientific name for octopus is Octopus vulgaris.
The octopus eats meat, and is a carnivore.
