Introduction
Octopus ka Rahasya, Jab bhi hum “Alien” word sunte hain, toh hamare dimaag mein turant space aur UFOs ki image banne lagti hai. Lekin kya aapne kabhi socha hai ki hamari apni dharti par, khaas karke samundar ki gehraiyon mein, ek aisa jeev rehta hai jiske features kisi doosre planet ke creature se kam nahi hain?
Hum baat kar rahe hain Octopus ki. Yeh jeev na sirf bohot zyada intelligent hai, balki iska body structure science ko bhi hairan kar deta hai. Aaj “Tathya Tarang” ke is special blog mein hum octopus ke un rahasyon (mysteries) ko jaanenge jo aapne pehle shayad hi kabhi sune honge.
1. 9 Dimag ki Super-Power
Insaanon ke paas ek hi dimag hota hai jo poore shareer ko control karta hai, lekin octopus ki kahani bilkul alag hai. Inke paas total 9 Dimag hote hain!
- Main Brain: Yeh uske sar mein hota hai aur saari memories aur learning ko control karta hai.
- 8 Mini-Brains: Octopus ki har ek taang (arm) mein apna ek chota dimag hota hai.
Iska sabse bada fayda ye hai ki iski har ek arm independently soch sakti hai. Agar octopus ek arm se khana dhund raha hai, toh doosri arm usi waqt kisi dushman se bachne ka rasta khoj sakti hai. Isse “De-centralized Intelligence” kehte hain, jo ise samundar ka sabse shaatir shikari banati hai.
2. Teen Dil aur Neela Khoon (The Blue Blood Mystery)
Octopus ka dil aur uska khoon bhi kisi science-fiction film se kam nahi hai. Insaanon ka khoon laal hota hai kyunki usmein Iron (loha) hota hai, lekin octopus ka khoon Neela (Blue) hota hai. Iska reason ye hai ki inke blood mein oxygen carry karne ke liye Copper (taamba) based protein hota hai, jise ‘Hemocyanin’ kehte hain.
Itna hi nahi, inke shareer mein Teen (3) Dil hote hain. Do dil khoon ko galfado (Gills) tak pump karte hain, aur teesra dil baaki body parts tak oxygen pahunchata hai. Dilchaspi ki baat ye hai ki jab octopus swim karta hai, toh uska teesra dil dhadakna band kar deta hai, isliye wo bohot jaldi thak jata hai aur zyadatar samundar ki satah (floor) par rengna pasand karta hai.
3. Girgit se bhi tez Rang Badalne ki Kala
Agar aapko lagta hai ki sirf girgit rang badal sakta hai, toh octopus ko dekh kar aap dang reh jayenge. Octopus Master of Camouflage hote hain. Yeh apni skin ka rang aur texture sirf kuch milliseconds mein badal sakte hain.
Inki skin mein hazaron special cells hote hain jinhe ‘Chromatophores’ kaha jata hai. Iski madad se ye na sirf apna colour badalte hain, balki apni skin ko kisi patthar ya samudri ghaas ki tarah khurdara (rough) bhi bana sakte hain. Ye kala inhe shikar karne aur dushmano se chhupne mein bohot madad karti hai.
4. Bina Haddiyon wala Sharir (Extreme Flexibility)
Octopus ke shareer mein ek bhi haddi (bone) nahi hoti. Unke paas bas ek hi hard part hota hai, jo ek chidiya ki ‘chonch’ (beak) jaisa dikhta hai. Shareer mein haddi na hone ki wajah se ye apne bade se shareer ko ek chote se coin (sikke) ke barabar ched se bhi nikal sakte hain.
Ye “Liquid Body” inhe aisi jagahon par chhupne ki power deti hai jahan koi doosra shikari soch bhi nahi sakta. Science ki duniya mein ise “Soft Robotics” ke inspiration ke taur par dekha jata hai.
5. Insaano jaisi Intelligence
Scientists ne research mein paya hai ki octopus bohot smart hote hain. Ye kisi jar ka dhakkan khol sakte hain, puzzles solve kar sakte hain, aur yahan tak ki insaano ke chehre bhi yaad rakh sakte hain. Kai baar aquariums mein octopus ko raat mein apne tank se bahar nikal kar doosre tanks ki machliyan khaate hue aur wapas apne tank mein laut-te hue dekha gaya hai!
Conclusion
Octopus waqai kudrat ka ek anokha karishma hai. Inka 9 dimag wala dimaag, 3 dil ki dhadkan aur neela khoon inhe is dharti ka sabse rahasyamayi jeev banata hai. Octopus humein yaad dilata hai ki samundar ki gehraiyon mein abhi bhi bohot kuch aisa hai jo insaani samajh se pare hai.
