The best answer is:
**B. Water helps them move and hold their structure.**
Cephalopods like squid and octopuses use a hydrostatic skeleton, where the pressure from water within their bodies helps maintain their shape and aids in movement. They also use muscular contractions to propel themselves through the water.
