I have observed octopuses mating and they can be quite far apart while the sperm exchange happens.

The foot of the squid is it's tentacles, it enables the squid to move very very very very very very very fast. The foot is also the mantle of the squid (the mantle is a thick layer of tissues {muscle} all mollusks use to protect their guts). In this case the squid uses it's mantle to run away from predators (swim away).
What structure is used by the chambered nautilus for buoyancy?
The chambered nautilus uses gas-filled chambers within its shell to control its buoyancy. By adjusting the amount of gas within these chambers, the nautilus can regulate its position in the water column.
The function of the water jet is to move the squid from left to right for example if the squid shots water left it will move to the right and vice versa
While an intelligent battery charger like the Motomaster Nautilus is designed to maintain and charge deep cycle batteries efficiently, it is not the same as a trickle charger. It can be left connected to the battery for extended periods, but it's good practice to periodically check the battery and charger to ensure everything is functioning as intended. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for safe and effective usage.

A Kraken is a huge sea monster in Norwegian Greek legend that looks like a giant octopus or giant squid.
