How many brains does an octopus have?

Answer 1

9

Answer 2

An octopus has one central brain located just above its mouth and in between its eyes. Octopi also have a series of ganglia distributed throughout their arms, which enable them to carry out certain autonomous functions.

Answer 3

They have 9 brains... or more precisely a central hub of 180 million neurons in the head linked to 8 other neuron groupings at the base of each arm. This brain configuration has nothing in common with anything we know, yet it habors a intelligence nearly identical to our own.
