Octopus are invertebrates hence, they obviously lack spinal column and other major bones that forms the structure of their body, and that said they only compose more of muscles that can contract and expand which makes them able to move from space to space with ease regardless of size and position. Their bodies adapt to such change but only for a durationed time.
