The octopus arm is a muscular hydrostatic structure that is almost entirely composed of a boneless muscle layer or outer skeleton.
The octopus has 8 arms (not tentacles) with a vacuum in the form of concave spheres on the arm used to move on the seabed and capture the prey.

The octopus is pale or white, but the color of the skin can be changed according to the color and pattern of the surrounding environment with the intention of camouflaging.
