Of all the octopus’ oddities, perhaps the most extraordinary one is that the octopus has one large central brain, and eight mini-brains, one in each arm. As a result, the arms can solve the problem of how to open a shellfish (贝类) while their owners are busy doing something else, like checking out a cave for more edible goodies (可食用的东西), according to Smithsonian magazine.
章鱼是很独特的动物,其中最不寻常的是:章鱼有一个大一点的中央大脑,八个小型大脑——每只触手各有一个。根据Smithsonian杂志的报道:当章鱼忙着在洞穴里寻找食物等事情的时候,它的触角可以自己搞定打开贝壳这种问题。
The ancient creature is also well-known for its disguises. The octopus can change its shape, colors, patterns, even the texture (纹理) of its skin. It can transform itself to look like seaweed (海草) in just the blink of an eye. This ability is called dynamic camouflage (动态伪装).章鱼这种古老的生物也以擅长伪装闻名——章鱼可以改变自己的形状、颜色、图案,甚至皮肤的纹理。它还可以在一眨眼的功夫把自己变成像海草一样的生物——这种能力被称为动态伪装。
The camouflage may look like a reflex (本能反应), but it’s not. It doesn’t just happen instinctively. They actually think and decide how to best camouflage themselves.
这种伪装看起来像是一种本能反应,但实际上不是。这不仅仅是本能反应。他们实际上在思考和决定如何更好地伪装自己。
