Squids, although they are usually called fish, are not actually fish, but molluscs living in the ocean. In taxonomy, squids belong to the order Decapoda, class Cephalopoda, subclass Dibranchia, and class Mollusca. Squids have two gills as breathing organs; their bodies are divided into a head, a very short neck, and a trunk. There are a pair of well-developed eyes and arms around the mouth on both sides of the head.

There are two kinds of squids seen in the market at present: one is the squid with a fatter body, which is called "calamari"; the other is the squid with a slender body, which is called "cuttlefish". The small squid is commonly known as "small tube".

Loliginidae (squid): A family of cephalopods, commonly known as squid. They are mainly distributed in tropical and temperate shallow seas, with about 50 species.

They often move in the upper and middle layers of shallow seas, and can move vertically up to 100 meters. They feed on krill, sardines, silversides, small male fish, etc., and are themselves prey to fierce fish. The eggs mature and are laid in batches, and are wrapped in gelatinous egg sheaths. Each egg sheath contains a few to hundreds of eggs, depending on the species. The number of eggs laid by different species varies greatly, ranging from hundreds to tens of thousands.

Chinese squid (commonly known as "squid") has tender meat and its dried product is called "dried squid". The meat is of excellent quality and it is well-known in the domestic and international seafood markets. The annual output is 40,000 to 50,000 tons. The main fishing grounds are in the waters of southern Fujian, Taiwan, Guangdong and Guangxi in China, as well as the Philippines, Vietnam and Thailand.

Cuttlefish is commonly known as cuttlefish and mullet. Although it is called fish because it has no spine, it is actually a mollusk living in the ocean. Cuttlefish is not only delicious and nutritious, but also can be used as medicine all over the body. The inner shell of the cuttlefish is called cuttlebone and cuttlebone in traditional Chinese medicine. Cuttlebone occupies an important position in traditional Chinese medicine. The Compendium of Materia Medica records that all blood diseases can be cured by cuttlebone. Cuttlebone has the effects of astringency, hemostasis, acid antacidity and analgesia. Cuttlebone is the main medicine for treating stomach diseases. The Chinese patent medicine for treating stomach diseases prepared with cuttlebone has played a significant role in treating stomach diseases. Cuttlebone is a good medicine for treating various bleeding. There are many good prescriptions for treating bleeding with cuttlebone in my country. For the treatment of gastric bleeding, you can grind cuttlebone and white hyacinth into fine powder and take it orally; for the treatment of hemoptysis caused by pulmonary tuberculosis, you can boil cuttlebone, cranesbill and madder and take it. For bleeding caused by trauma, you can grind cuttlebone, bone powder and pollen carbon in equal parts and sprinkle them on the wound for treatment. Cuttlebone can also be used to stop bleeding in tooth extraction and nasal surgery. The enlarged part at the end of the rectum of the cuttlebone is called the ink sac, which is the container for the cuttlebone to release ink to the strong enemy when the cuttlebone encounters danger. The main component of cuttlebone ink is cuttlebone melanin, which is a systemic hemostatic drug and can be used to treat gastrointestinal bleeding, functional uterine bleeding and pulmonary hemoptysis. In addition, pharmacological studies have also found that cuttlebone ink has a preventive effect on acute radiation sickness. After a certain preparation, cuttlebone bones can be used to obtain a compound that has a certain anti-cancer effect. In addition, substances with antiviral effects can be extracted from the cuttlebone. Cooking cuttlebone meat can treat women's blood deficiency and amenorrhea. Mullet eggs can stimulate appetite and promote diuresis. Cuttlefish are indeed full of medicine.

Octopus, also known as octopus, is a marine mollusk.

A general term for cephalopod molluscs of the order Octopoda. Strictly speaking, it refers only to animals of the genus Octopus, which are widely distributed in shallow water.

Octopuses vary greatly in size. The smallest octopus is the arborescens, which is about 5 centimeters long(2), while the largest species can be up to 5.4 meters(18) long, with an arm span of nearly 9 meters(30). The typical octopus has a sac-shaped body; the head is not clearly separated from the body, with large compound eyes and eight retractable arms. Each arm has two rows of fleshy suction cups that allow it to hold objects firmly. The base of the arm is connected to a webbed tissue called a skirt, with a mouth in the center. The mouth has a pair of sharp horny palates and a rasp-like radula, which are used to drill into shells and scrape the flesh.

Octopuses draw water into their mantles and expel it through their short funnel-shaped tubes after breathing. Most octopuses use their suckers to crawl along the seafloor, but when startled, they will eject streams of water from their tubes to quickly move in the opposite direction. When in danger, they will spray ink-like substances as a smoke screen. Some species produce substances that can paralyze the sensory organs of attackers.

The most well-known octopus is the common octopus (O. vulgaris), which is medium-sized and widely distributed in tropical and temperate waters around the world. It lives in caves or crevices on the rocky seabed and prefers to hide. It mainly feeds on crabs and other crustaceans. This species is considered to be the most intelligent among invertebrates, and has highly developed pigment-containing cells, so it can change its body color very quickly, and the speed of change is also amazing.

Octopuses are dioecious. The male has a specialized arm, called the peduncle arm or the copulatory arm, which is used to place the spermatophore directly into the female's mantle cavity. Common octopuses mate in winter. The eggs are about 0.3 cm (1/8) long, with a total of more than 100,000, and are laid under rocks or in caves. The larvae hatch after 4 to 8 weeks. During the hatching period, the female guards the eggs, cleans them with a suction cup, and stirs them with water. The juvenile octopus is similar in shape to the adult but smaller. After hatching, it needs to drift with the plankton for several weeks before sinking to the bottom of the water to hide.

Octopuses feed mainly on shrimps and crabs, but some species feed on plankton. Many marine fish feed on octopuses. Octopuses have long been considered a delicacy in the Mediterranean region, Oriental countries, and some other parts of the world.

Squid is a type of squid that belongs to the mollusk family. It has a conical body, pale body color, light brown spots, a large head, 10 tentacles in front, and a triangular fin at the end of the tail. It often swims in groups in the ocean about 20 meters deep. In taxonomy, squid belongs to the phylum Mollusca, class Cephalopoda, subclass Dibranchia, order Decapoda. Squids have two gills in their bodies as respiratory organs; their bodies are divided into a head, a very short neck, and a trunk.

Dried squid is made by cutting open the abdomen of the squid, removing the internal organs, washing it in fresh water, rinsing it with clean water, and then drying it in the sun. It has a flat and long body, with a head and wrist shaped like a Buddha's hand, and fleshy fins tightly attached to both sides of the tail, shaped like a double bun. The whole body is light pink with white frost on the surface. It is mainly produced in Guangdong, Fujian, and Zhejiang, and the production period is from July to August. It is also produced in Japan, Vietnam, and North Korea.

What a shitty answer. Who wouldn't know how to repost?

LZ, there are two common types of squids: medium-sized and small. The medium-sized ones are called squids, and the small ones we live in by the sea are called pen tube octopuses.

They look similar, but they are not the same thing. They can only be considered close relatives. The skin of fresh squid is firm and grayish black. The flesh is white with a hint of gray. The surface of stale squid is black and purple, while the dried squid is pink with a hint of yellow and transparent. The fresh squid has the fishy smell of seafood. Dried squid with thick flesh, evenly distributed and no broken pieces is the best. The skin is pink and purple, and it smells like the fishy smell of seafood. It is the best product if it makes you feel like the sea and the sun are mixed together. On the contrary, if the skin is black and purple and smells fishy and smelly, it is a rotten product.

The water has almost no smell, but if you smell it carefully, it may smell like medicine. -------------------

Squid is a general term for the Loliginidae family of the phylum Mollusca, class Cephalopoda, order Teuthoidea. It is also called squid, pen tube, ancient name lock tube, squid. There are about 50 species in the Loliginidae family, of which about 16 species have become targets of fishing, such as the Chinese squid (Loligo chinensis), the Japanese squid (L. japonica), the sword-pointed squid (L. edulis), the Forbes squid (L. forbesi), the Pealey squid (L. pealei), and the Lessiana squid (Sepioteuthis lessoniana). The maximum length can reach 550 mm and the maximum weight can reach 5.6 kg.

Nutritional value:

1. The nutritional value of squid is very high. It is rich in protein, calcium, taurine, phosphorus, vitamin B1 and other nutrients needed by the human body, and the content is extremely high. In addition, the fat content is extremely low. [2] The cholesterol content is relatively high. Every 100 grams of fresh squid meat contains about 15 grams of protein and 230 international units of vitamin A, which is about twice that of squid. Dried squid is a light dried product of Chinese squid.

2. Although it is delicious, it is not suitable for everyone. Patients with cardiovascular diseases such as hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, arteriosclerosis, and liver diseases should be careful when eating it. Squid is cold in nature, so people with weak spleen and stomach should eat less. Squid is an allergy food, so people with eczema, urticaria, and other diseases should avoid eating it.

3. Dried squid is made from fresh dried squid and cuttlefish. It has a fresh and tender taste and rich nutrition, and is known as a seafood delicacy. As early as thousands of years ago, ancient Chinese books recorded that "squid is similar to squid, but without bones, and the Yue people value it." According to measurements, the edible part of dried squid is 95%, which is 13% more than the same fish product dried cuttlefish; the protein content is 65.9% per 100 grams, which is 27.8 grams more than dried cuttlefish; the calorie content is 316 kcal, which is 42 kcal higher than dried cuttlefish; dried squid also contains carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other nutrients.
