Anatomy
Squid have two gills, sometimes called ctenidia, and an extensive closed circulatory system consisting of a systemic heart and two gill hearts. gills of a Smooth Newt Gills inside of a tuna head In aquatic organisms, gills are a respiratory organ for the extraction of oxygen from water and for the excretion of carbon dioxide. ...

The tentacles are a type of muscular hydrostat and have suckers. If severed, the tentacles do not grow back. Squid can readily blend in with their surroundings to avoid predators. A muscular hydrostat is a biological structure, found in animals. ...
They also have chromatophores embedded in their skin and the ability to expel ink if threatened. Being coleoids means that their bony structure is internalized (in the octopus it is nonexistent); in squid there is a single flat plate structure buried within the soft tissue, referred to as the gladius or pen. They have a specialized foot called the siphon, or hyponome, that enables them to move by expelling water under pressure. Squid are the most skilled of the coleoids at this form of motion. Zebrafish chromatophores mediate background adaptation on exposure to dark (top) and light environments (bottom). ...
In zootomy and dermatology, skin is an organ of the integumentary system made up of multiple layers of epithelial tissues that guard underlying muscles and organs. ...
An ink is a liquid containing various pigments and/or dyes used for colouring a surface to render an image or text. ...

The hyponome is the organ used by cephalopods for locomotion. ...
The mouth of the squid is equipped with a sharp horny beak made of chitin, used to kill and tear prey into manageable pieces. Captured whales often have squid beaks in their stomachs, the beak being the only indigestible part of the squid. The mouth contains the radula (the rough tongue common to all mollusks except bivalvia and aplacophora). Structure of chitin molecule Chitin (IPA: ) is one of the main components in the cell walls of fungi, the exoskeletons of insects and other arthropods, and in some other animals. ...

Squid are exclusively carnivorous, feeding on fish and other invertebrates. Squid usually have two elongated tentacles especially for the capture of food. They are voracious, fast-moving and fast-growing predators, and can be hugely abundant in productive seas. Most live for one year, dying after spawning, although some of the giant species may live for two years or more. This article deals with meat-eating animals. ...
Size - See also: Giant squid, Colossal Squid, and Cephalopod size
The majority of squid are no more than 60 cm long, although the giant squid may reach 13 m in length. In 2003, however, a large specimen of an abundant but poorly understood species, Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni (the Colossal Squid) was discovered. This species may grow to 14 m in length, making it the largest invertebrate in the world. It also possesses the largest eyes in the animal kingdom. Giant squids are featured in literature and folklore, with a strongly frightening connotation.

Classification Squid are members of the class Cephalopoda, subclass Coleoidea, order Teuthida, of which there are two major suborders, Myopsina and Oegopsina (including the giant squids like Architeuthis dux). Teuthida is the largest of the cephalopod orders, edging out the octopuses (order Octopoda) for total number of species, with 298 classified into 28 families.

The order Teuthida is a member of the superorder Decapodiformes (from the Greek for "ten legs"). Two other orders of decapodiform cephalopods are also called squid, although they are taxonomically distinct from Teuthida and differ recognizably in their gross anatomical features. They are the bobtail squid of order Sepiolida and the Ram's Horn Squid of the single species order Spirulida. The Vampire Squid, however, is more closely related to the octopuses than to any of the squid. Orders Sepiida Sepiolida Spirulida Teuthida Decapodiformes is a superorder of Cephalopoda, which includes all species with ten limbs; the name derives from the Latin meaning ten feet. ...
