Things that are plush are luxurious and a little over the top. A bedspread made of mink fur would be considered plush. Plush originally referred to a rich, soft type of fabric, and itâs now used to describe anything extravagant. A plush lifestyle is one only the wealthy can afford, with expensive restaurants, obedient servants, and fancy furniture. A plush living room is full of paintings and decorations.
Octopus, plural octopuses or octopi, in general, any eight-armed cephalopod (octopod) mollusk of the order Octopoda. The true octopuses are members of the genus Octopus, a large group of widely distributed shallow-water cephalopods. (See cephalopod.) zoom_in.
For zoologist Mark Elgar of the University of Melbourne, Australia, an expert on invertebrate mating behaviour, the actions of the female octopuses make sense, given their eight-pronged anatomy. âThe specific method by which the female octopus captures and kills her mate â constricting him with her many legs â is novel, but only because this can be done only by an octopus,â says Elgar. Huffard agrees. Octopuses are a type of mollusc known as a cephalopod, a group that also includes squid.
