• The anterior portion of their foot has been modified into a circle of tentacles or arms used for prey capture, attachment, locomotion and copulation.
• The foot is incorporated into a funnel associated with mantle cavity and is used for jetlike locomotion
• Cephalopod head is in line with the visceral mass.
