A specimen partially encased in ice and maintained at 0.5 °C B, C although most of the body was encased in ice, certain body parts—such as the leg (indicated by red arrows)—remained in contact with a thin film of water and exhibited movement. Remarkably, upon thawing after 27 hours, specimens kept under these conditions resumed active movement immediately. The specimen measured about 6 mm in length.
