The Giant Squid's only enemy is the sperm whale, who hunts it deep in the ocean. Anatomy: The largest-known Architeuthis was 57 feet (17.5 m) long. They have eight arms, two longer feeding tentacles, a beak, a large head, and two eyes, each the size of a basketball. They ...
Anatomy The giant squid is one of the largest mollusks in terms of mass—second only to colossal squid. The maximum length of the squid measures around 20 m (66 ft) but the average length is 43 feet for females and 33 feet for males. The maximum weight of the male squid is 150 kg ...
Architeuthis (Giant Squid) reproduction, with notes on basic anatomy and behaviorArchiteuthis (Fig. 1, left) is basically an eating and breeding machine. A look inside the cut-open mantle (Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, right) revels a large stomach, and both spiral and digestive (or stomach) caeca...
Calculate Vm for the squid giant axon at 6.3°C. Solution Using Equation (12.33) and the data in Table 12.1 gives Vm=25.3×ln(1×20+0.04×440+0.45×521×400+0.04×50+0.45×560)mV=−60mV Read more View chapterExplore book Microscopic Anatomy of the Peripheral Nervous System C.-H. BER...
Artist’s illustration of giant squid. How did the monstrous giant squid – reaching school-bus size, with eyes as big as dinner plates and tentacles that can snatch prey 10 yards away – get so scarily big? Today, important clues about the anatomy and evolution of the mysterious giant squi...

Beached Giant Squid (Image credit: David Paul, Museum Victoria) Giant squid are almost never observed in the wild, but beached specimens have taught scientists about their anatomy. Giant Squid (Image credit: David Paul, Museum Victoria) An autopsy of a beached giant squid in Canada. Giant Squi...
SEFs were recorded at 1025 Hz sampling rate using the whole-head MEG system consisting of 165 dc SQUID integrated magnetometers (Della Penna et al., 2000). Before and after each stimulation session, the position of the head with respect to the sensor was determined by localizing five coils ...
Same goes for all anatomy, really. Spontaneous Fourth Caste Reemersion Syndrome A highly dangerous condition, lethal in 100% of all cases, so far incurable. It may occur in redeemed Third Caste members if their previous failings were grave enough (i.e. murder would not induce SFCRS, but ...
Not only has our study revealed exciting information about the internal anatomy of the skull of this animal, but our findings will aid other palaeontologists in exploring its evolutionary relationship with other ichthyosaurs." More information: PeerJ, DOI: 10.7717/peerj.6112 Journal information: ...
