Biologists have recorded a new record of deep-sea fish stay. Scientists noticed her at the depth 8143 meters below sea level. This tells New Scientist.

Researchers found fish through the camera while studies of the Mariana trench in the Pacific ocean. This chute is the most solid place in the World ocean is its depth of approximately 11 miles.

Found the fish has a wide translucent fins and tail like the tail of an eel and allowing it to move smoothly along the bottom of the ocean.

How do you think scientists observed their fish belongs to a previously unknown kind lipanovich - genus of marine fish, known in all the oceans and includes more than 300 species.

Leprosie few animals are able to live at such depths. Previously, scientists had discovered another fish of this genus that lived in the depths 7703 meters.

Dwelling vertebrates at these depths associated with large strain on muscle and nervous tissue. This is due to high pressure, which leads to disruption of the actions of metabolism of drugs.

According to New Scientist, in 1999, a Scientist from Washington Paul Yancey found in fish substance called trimethylamine oxide. This plexus, as it turns out, is connected with the regulation of the concentration of dissolved drug in the cells and prevent the degradation of proteins at large depths.

The content of trimethylamine oxide in fish, as it turns out, increases together with the increase in the depth of their habitat. However, Yancey noticed that cells can contain only a limited quantity of this drug.

Based on this, it together with its English counterpart Alan Jamison brought the restriction is very possible depth habitat lipanovich. It was equal 8200 meters.
