Scientists rely mostly on beached corpses or bodies found in whale stomachs to study the elusive 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 squid (Architeuthis dux) are revealed throug...
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 breathe using gills. Diet: Giant squid are fast-moving carnivores (meat-eaters) that catch ...
The biophysical studies that formed the foundation for the theoretical model were conducted in the giant axon of the squid, whose unusually large size allowed electrodes to be placed inside its cell membrane. The potential value of the squid giant axon for these types of studies was first ...

Giant squid, any member of a genus of large, elusive cephalopods inhabiting deep regions of temperate to subtropical marine waters. Thought to be the largest or second largest living invertebrate, the giant squid has been frequently depicted as a sea mon
