@mbari_news: Arms up if you love octopuses! 🐙🙋 #WorldOctopusDay⁠ ⁠ Deep-sea organisms use a variety of ways to swim. Most cephalopods, like this gliding Benthoctopus sp., have the ability to move by jet propulsion. Octopuses can move rapidly by forcefully squeezing water out of the siphon, and they can even control their movements by aiming their siphon in the desired direction. This one was observed pulsing its arms and jetting gracefully through the water. #deepsea #oceanlife #ocean #fyp
