Octopus everyone is very familiar with, often as food in people's lives, and even like the animation octopus brother such a character is also a good friend. A few years ago that predicted the ball game octopus is also a hot all over the net. But there's a side to the octopus that you wouldn't expect, a team of 33 scientists united suggests that the octopus may be an alien creature, could the prediction really be its ability rather than a fluke, which leaves those of us with big question marks.
Why do scientists say this?
First of all, we ordinary people seem, octopus appearance is particularly strange, eight-legged octopus and a lot of sci-fi theme in the shape and octopus head is also extremely similar, and even the octopus internal organs are more peculiar, they have three hearts, nine brains, so it seems that the octopus on the appearance of the very much like extraterrestrial organisms. Then scientists studied the octopus genome, in the octopus genome has more than 30,000 groups of genes, which is compared to human beings is 3 times ours. This number of genomes means that octopuses have more neurons than most mammals. This also determines the octopus's IQ is superb, after all, the biggest difference between humans and animals is that there is intelligence, it is clear that the octopus's intelligence is not worse than that of humans, so there is a high probability that it is an extraterrestrial organism.
The octopus has about 500 million neurons in its eight legs, and it is these neurons that give the octopus its expressive power of highly intelligent behavior. It's not hard to explain why people don't take other animals to predict ball games, and it's no coincidence that it has a lot to do with the octopus's very strong giving ability. Octopuses have two memory systems, in addition to their brain, the octopus's 8 legs are also their memory system, so this is why they are so flexible. The flexibility of the octopus allows them to crawl everywhere in the middle of the ocean, and they are also quick to make a 100-meter sprint to escape when they are in danger.
In addition to these basic, the octopus can also rewrite their own genes, which also allows the next generation of octopus more adaptable to the sea environment, most of the octopus is also a solitary organism, and many creatures are different, with such a special genetic coupled with its super-high learning ability and intelligence, octopus is very good at surviving in any environment. There have been experiments: the octopus will love to eat food into the bottle it can smoothly open their own, and the octopus themselves into the bottle, but also can easily escape, so that the octopus of this resilience is not the general creatures have.
Summary
In short, the ocean has a lot of mysteries that we have not yet explored, the universe is more so, we believe that the Earth will not be the only planet where life exists, there must be a certain kind of planet to be smarter than human beings to be more intelligent creatures, and even the possibility of also establishing a civilization belonging to them, just as many science fiction films in the fantasy. As many science fiction movies in the fantasy, I believe that someday our human technology can take us to witness these mysteries.
