The Devil Worm

Can survive: Crippling pressure, lack of oxygen, high temperature.

This species of nematode, only recently discovered in 2011, has been found living up to 2.2 miles below the surface of the Earth. It blew away the previous record for multicellular organisms by a full mile. These worms spend their lives in total darkness, drinking 12,000 year old water and eating simple bacteria.

Bisa hidup ditekanan udara yg sangat tinggi, dgn sedikit oxygen, dgn suhu udara tinggi, bisa juga hidup ditempat yang tidak ada cahaya sama sekali, minum air yang umurnya 12.000 tahun dan memakan bakteria sederhana.



The Himalayan Jumping Spider

Can survive: Low pressure, freezing temperatures.

The polar opposite of the devil worm, this spider holds the record for the animal that claims residency at a higher point than any other (4.1 miles above sea level). It’s able to survive long periods without food, freezing temperatures, and a distinct lack of atmospheric pressure. The only sources of nutrition available to the Himlayan jumping spider are the tiny insects that get blown up the mountain by the high winds.

Bisa hidup pegunungan tinggi, dgn tekanan udara sangat rendah, dgn suhu udara yg sangat dingin, dgn jumlah makanan yang sangat sedikit.



The Immortal Jellyfish

Can survive: The aging process.

These jellyfish have the ability to revert back to their infant stages in adverse conditions, making them effectively immortal. There doesn't seem to be any limit on the number of times that they are able to revert back to their infancy. Unfortunately, they're highly vulnerable to predation and disease every time they live out their immature, smaller stages.

Yang satu ini kalau sudah mulai menua, entah dgn cara apa tubuhnya dapat berbalik dan kembali ke umurnya yang sangat muda, umurnya bisa mundur berkali-kali ke semuda saat dia baru dilahirkan.



The Red Flat Bark Beetle

Can survive: Extreme cold.

This insect, which is native to the northern areas of Alaska and Canada, is able to resist temperatures up to -150 degrees Celsius (-238 Fahrenheit) by producing an antifreeze protein that prevents the crystallization of its blood. Its blood is also fortified with glycerol, which further halts freezing.

Yg satu ini dapat bertahan hingga -150 derajat Celsius. Tubuhnya bisa memproduksi semacam cairan anti-freeze, biar tidak beku.



The Pompeii Worm

Can survive: Extreme heat, variance in temperature.

These deep-sea worms live exclusively in thermal vents in the ocean floor. Their tails are in the vents, which achieve temperatures up to 176 degrees Fahrenheit. Their heads however, poke out of the vents in order for the pompeii worms to capture prey. This results in half of their bodies experiencing temperatures over 100 degrees lower. It's thought that their resistance to heat is due to a coating of specialized bacteria on their bodies, which may provide a large degree of insulation for the worm.

The Pompeii Worm
Yg satu ini, tubuhnya dapat bertahan panas, meskipun disekelilingnya mencapai 80 derajat Celsius, ia dapat menurunkan suhu badannya sebanyak 30 derajat Celcius untuk melindungi tubuhnya dari kepanasan.



The Tardigrade

Can survive: Basically anything.

These millimeter long, segmented animals can survive just about everything. Temperatures between just above absolute zero and 300 degrees Fahrenheit are no problem. 1200 times atmospheric pressure? The tardigrade just shrugs it off. It doesn’t really care about dehydration either, seeing as it can go 10 years without water. 1,000 times the lethal dose of radiation for humans is another non-factor. When testing the true extent of the tardigrade's resilience, scientists went so far as to send it to outer space in 2007. The result? Most of the tardigrades that went on the mission came back entirely unscathed. Plus they're kind of weirdly adorable.

The Tardigrade
Berukuran hanya sekitar satu milimeter, mahluk ini bisa hidup hampir dialam mana saja. 10 tahun ngak minum pun masih saja hidup. Yg ini, udah mirip Terminator banget ... ... kagak ada matinya ... ...
