The octopus belongs to the phylum, Mollusca. It shares this phylum with its brethren squid and mollusks. It is a cephalopod, the octopus; therefore, Cephalopoda would be its class. Hope this helps.

Squid actually belong in the mollusk phylum along with octopuses, snails, slugs, mussels, oysters, and clams. They are not vertebrates, and because of this they can twist and squeeze their bodies into tiny cracks and crevasses.
There are three types of mussels: Gastropoda(snails and slugs) bivalve(oysters and clams) and Cephalopoda(octopuses and squid). All are in the same phylum, so technically they're all related.
Yes octopus are camoflauge in their own way!!!!!
yes. both octopuses, and squid are part of the mollusca phylum.
The study of shells is called conchology. Conchologists examine the morphology, classification, and distribution of shells from various species of mollusks. This field of study is important for understanding biodiversity, evolution, and environmental changes over time.
Phylum Mollusca houses such animals as snails, slugs, clams, squid, octopi, and cuttlefish.
Snails belong to the phylum Mollusca, which also includes other animals such as clams, octopuses, and squid. This phylum is characterized by soft bodies, often covered by a hard shell, and a muscular foot used for locomotion.
The Molluska or Mollusca phylum includes: Cephalopods, including octupuses, squids, cuttlefish and nautiluses Gastropods, including slugs and snails, whelks, winkles and shellfish with a single shell Bivalves, including oysters, clams, cockles and other shellfish with two shells
Snails, slugs, clams, squid, octopus, cuttlefish, to name only a few.Related Information:The phylum Mollusca contains about 93,000, approximately 23%, of the named species with us today. Estimates of 120,000 have been made.The majority of species live in salt water, some in fresh water, some are land animals. The phylum is usually divided into about eight living classes and two extinct classes:Aplacophra,Bivalvia,Caudofoveata,Cephalopoda,Gastropoda,Helcionelloida (extinct),Monoplacophora,Polyplacophora,Rostroconchia (extinct),Scaphopoda.
Octopuses, hermit crabs, squid, slugs, snails, and sharks are a few creatures that do not have bones (creatures that do not have bones are called 'invertebrates').
