Scientists used a camera to observe the shapeshifter (Ampi) , also known as xenophyophores, at a depth of 10.6 km in the Mariana Trench, in the Philippine coast - which is considered the deepest from so far that scientists have studied. Previously, the record explored the ocean at a depth of about 7km.

The species of xenophyophores has high absorption of uranium, lead and mercury. At the same time it is also durable with heavy metals. They live in deep waters, where there is a dark environment, low temperature, high pressure.

Doug Bartlett, of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, who also organized the expedition, said: 'Finding giant cells in the planet's harsh and deep sea environment opens up the potential for research. Biological diversity in the field of biotechnology '.

Lisa Levin, director of Scripps Institution of Oceanography, said in such a harsh environment, scientists believe there are many more mysterious creatures that need to be discovered and studied.
