Behind the octopus's head, directly opposite the arms, is its mantle. The mantle is a highly muscled structure that houses all of the animal's organs. Its gills, hearts, digestive system and reproductive glands are all crammed into this one space.
The mantle cavity is a flesh fold of skin that houses the gills and helps the squid to swim by a process called jet propulsionThe squid sucks in water through the mantle opening.
