About the book
Cephalopods are exclusively marine, complex organisms. They are characterized by a fused head and foot, with few tentacles surrounding the head. They are generally carnivorous. Locomotion is mainly performed by jet propulsion, or they can walk with the help of their arms. Cephalopods exhibit a well-developed nervous system and complex sensory organs. Cephalopods possess pigment-rich cells called chromatophores, with the help of which they can change their color and release ink in the aqueous medium when they are in danger. Moreover, they exhibit considerable economic importance to humans in terms of dietary sources and decoration.
The objective of the book is to consolidate and compile the articles representing the modern trends of research on cephalopods. This book aims to provide a rich source of information for researchers in this domain.
