The nerve cells of the blue ring octopus have differentiated - they are like telephone lines, forming a network that quickly transmits information to any part of the body and electrical impulses travel along the nerve cells until they reach a point with another cell.
A brief introduction to the blue ribbon Octopus
Brief introduction of octopus in blue belt
Blue ring octopus is a very small species of octopus, with arms no more than 15 cm across. It can feed small fish, crabs, shrimps and crustaceans, and paralyze the prey with strong toxin (tetrodotoxin). In the ocean, the blue ring octopus is one of the highly toxic creatures. A bite by this small octopus can cause death. But the octopus will not attack humans unless they are threatened.
However, the most toxic marine organisms in the world are known to have a toxicity level of 6 (the highest level is 10, and the average marine organism's toxin level is about 4-5).
It lives in the Pacific waters.
Brown spots, blue bands on the antennae (bluer when toxins are released).
After poisoning, it will be fatigue, general numbness and death.
It takes about three minutes (sometimes instant death).
At present, the detoxification method is only artificial respiration, but it is basically impossible to save.
Note: small looking creatures are easy to be regarded as octopus of toys.
The shape characteristics of octopus in the blue belt
Blue ring octopus is a very small species of octopus, with arms no more than 15 cm across. It is only the size of a golf ball and its surface is tan, so it is easy to hide in the surrounding environment. They usually live by the sea, named for their bright blue rings. In case of danger, the dark rings on the body and claws will emit dazzling blue light and send a warning signal to the other party. Although the octopus is small, it secretes enough venom to kill people in one bite. As there is no antidote, it is one of the most toxic marine organisms known. Its sharp mouth can penetrate the diver's diving suit.
The nerve cells of the blue ring octopus have differentiated - they are like telephone lines, forming a network that quickly transmits information to any part of the body and electrical impulses travel along the nerve cells until they reach a point with another cell. Then a specific chemical is produced, skipping the gap between the two cells, and the cell on the other side receives the chemical and generates a new electrical pulse that carries the residence. The process that occurs at these junctions is very important for the brain to transmit counter information to muscles.
