Most squid species whose reproduction has been observed have been seen to deposit eggs on the sea floor, then leave the eggs to hatch on their own. Five female Gonatus onyx squids have been observed in Monterey Canyon dragging a membrane sack containing 2,000 to 3,000 developing eggs. [ 5 ]
Gonatus onyx is in the class Cephalopoda and in the phylum Mollusca.It is also known as the clawed arm hook squid or the black-eyed squid.It got these names from the characteristic black eye and from its two arms with clawed hooks on the end that extend a bit further than the other arms.
A SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) is a very sensitive magnetometer used to measure extremely weak magnetic fields, based on superconducting loops containing Josephson junctions. SQUIDs are sensitive enough to measure fields as low as 5×10 −18 T with a few days of averaged measurements. [ 1 ]
Berryteuthis magister, also known as the magister armhook squid, commander squid or schoolmaster gonate squid, is a medium-sized squid in the family Gonatidae. It is found in cold, high latitude waters of the North Pacific where it is among the most numerous squid species recorded. There are three recognised subspecies of B. magister.
The second gene family known as C 2 H 2 are small proteins that function as zinc transcription factors. C 2 H 2 are understood to moderate DNA, RNA and protein functions within the cell. [152] The sequenced California two spot octopus genome also showed a significant presence of transposable elements as well as transposon expression.

Female reproductive cells are egg cells, and male reproductive cells are sperm. [2] The male gonad, the testicle, produces sperm in the form of spermatozoa. The female gonad, the ovary, produces egg cells
Nidamental glands of cuttlefish are eaten as food in various parts of the world, included either in dishes in which the whole animal is consumed, or separately. In southern Spain, for example, they are cooked whole and known as huevos de choco and there is a popular notion that these organs are the gonads of the male cuttlefish. [6]
