What is a gizzard of a octopus?

An octopus does not have a gizzard in the same way that some other animals do, as it lacks a traditional digestive system with a separate gizzard for grinding food. Instead, octopuses possess a specialized structure called a "beak," which is used to break down their prey. They also have a crop, where food is temporarily stored before digestion. This unique anatomy allows octopuses to effectively consume and digest their diet, primarily consisting of crustaceans and mollusks.
