An octopus has no skeleton, but they do have a hard beak. They are known for their long tentacles and ability to squirt ink.

How many offspring does the octopus have?
Octopus vulgaris and O. variabilis have n=28, therefore 56.
Where does the Antarctic octopus live?
The Antarctic giant octopus -- Megaleledone setebos -- lives in the Southern Ocean which surrounds the continent.
It is the rubber that makes a tight seal and creates the suction. If it is wet, it gives it even a better seal for suction. In office and household settings, they are commonly used to affix objects (ranging from signs to mugs) to nonporous vertical surfaces such as refrigerator doors and tiled walls.
No. To be kosher, seafood must have fins and scales. Octopusses (Octipi?) have neither.
How does an Mimic Octopus Defend itself?
It hides in the sand or campfloges it'self to look like a octopus
When octopuses reproduce, males use a specialized arm called a hectocotylus to insert spermatophores (packets of sperm) into the female's mantle cavity. The hectocotylus in benthic octopuses is usually the third right arm. Males die within a few months after mating. In some species, the female octopus can keep the sperm alive inside her for weeks until her eggs are mature. After they have been fertilized, the female lays about 200,000 eggs (this figure dramatically varies between families, genera, species and also individuals). The female hangs these eggs in strings from the ceiling of her lair, or individually attaches them to the substratum depending on the species. The female cares for the eggs, guarding them against predators, and gently blowing currents of water over them so that they get enough oxygen. The female does not eat during the roughly one-month period spent taking care of the unhatched eggs. At around the time the eggs hatch, the mother dies and the young larval octopuses spend a period of time drifting in clouds of plankton, where they feed on copepods, larval crabs and larval starfish until they are ready to sink down to the bottom of the ocean, where the cycle repeats itself. In some deeper dwelling species, the young do not go through this period. This is a dangerous time for the larval octopuses; as they become part of the plankton cloud they are vulnerable to many plankton eaters.
*Octopuses* have a relatively short life span, and some species live for as little as six months. Larger species, such as the North Pacific Giant Octopus, may live for up to five years under suitable circumstances. However, reproduction is a cause of death: males can only live for a few months after mating, and females die shortly after their eggs hatch, for they neglect to eat during the (roughly) one month period spent taking care of their unhatched eggs. [Octopuses are highly intelligent,*** probably more intelligent than any other order of invertebrates. The exact extent of their intelligence and learning capability is much debated among biologists
they break their food bown and stuff it in thier body using their tentickles.
Do octopuses have 1 or two eyes?
They have two eyes. An octopus is what's known as a symmetrical animal-it means what is one side is repeated on the other. You cut it in half and both its halves would appear identical.
yes octopuses are trainable because they are very smart creatures. even smarter than us.
No, the octopus is not a mammal.
The octopus is in a class of molluscs called cephalopods.
All mammals are vertebrates, meaning they have a backbone. Octopuses do not have a backbone, making them invertebrates.
Is the largest heart of an octopus located in its chest?
Well, it only has one heart so why the largest heart and frankly nobody would actually know that
How many neutrons are in a octopus?
Up to roughly 1029 in the largest specimens, though 1025 or so would be more typical. (This assumes half the nucleons are neutrons, which is a bit of an overestimate; I wouldn't trust those figures to within much more than an order of magnitude.)
