The name of the amoeba Proteus comes from the sea god Proteus, who could change his shape to avoid capture. This helps us understand the life of this single-celled organism, which changes shape and color like a jacket, depending on its environment.

It lives happily at the bottom of ponds, moving around thanks to its pseudopods (or false feet). Be careful not to catch amebiasis on one of your exotic trips... or it won't be so fun anymore.
