I have some words, together they are clues for 1 word that is in context with them. I will provide the words and I want you you to give me the word that has to do with all of them and explain me why.

The words:

8, water, ink, fried
The word that relates to all these words is Octopus.

8 refers to the eight legs of an octopus. Water is where octopuses are commonly found in the ocean. Ink is a defense mechanism used by octopuses to evade predators, as they can release a cloud of ink to obscure their escape. Fried refers to a common way of cooking octopus, where it is sometimes battered and fried.
Good job, that was one of the correct answer. What other answers could apply to this set of words?
Here are other potentials for the given words:

1. Squids: similar to octopuses, they may be the answer; however, they have on average 10 total limbs (8 arms and 2 tentacles). They could be contenders because they are underwater creatures that can also release ink, but they are also eaten fried on occasion.
2. Calamari: This is a dish made from the deep-fried tentacles of a squid, which is similar to an octopus, it also has eight arms and two tentacles, so it may be a great potential contender.
3. Cephalopods: This word encompasses both octopuses and squids and refers to a group of mollusks that have soft bodies, and bilateral symmetry, most cephalopods are also capable of releasing ink.
4. Tentacles: In some contexts, the word tentacles could be used in reference to these clues. Eight legs/arms, ink, and fried (since the word tentacle is sometimes used to refer to the arms of cephalopods, including octopuses, which are sometimes served fried).
5. Printer: An inkjet printer uses water-based ink to print images and text on paper. The number 8 could refer to the number of color cartridges in some inkjet printers or the number the printer could print, and the fried could be if a short circuit happens or if the printer prints some fried food.
