Many deep-sea organisms would fatally rupture if brought rapidly to the surface due to pressure changes.
Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni inhabits depths ranging from 1,000 to over 2,000 meters, where hydrostatic pressure is immense. Its soft-bodied anatomy lacks air-filled cavities, preventing compression damage.

Unlike surface animals with lungs or gas bladders, deep-sea squid are largely composed of incompressible tissues and fluids. This makes them naturally suited to withstand crushing pressure without specialized skeletal reinforcement.
Studying these biological adaptations provides insights into material science and deep-sea engineering, where pressure-resistant design is critical.
