I think it said just one of it’s cells exceeded 4 inches. Thus my curiosity was piqued. Reminds me of the song: “The Amoeba that Ate Cincinnati”

The team documented the deepest known existence of xenophyophores, single-celled animals ...That's all they are is one cell.

Um, in your science education, did you learn that an amoeba is a ONE-CELLED creature?

I think it said just one of it’s [sic] cells exceeded 4 inches.
The team documented the deepest known existence of xenophyophores, single-celled animals exclusively found in deep-sea environments. Xenophyophores are noteworthy for their size, with individual cells often exceeding 4 inches (10 centimeters)...
They were referring to individuals of the same group of single-celled animals, not cells of a single individual--ha ha, individual, I just got what that actually means. A single-celled animal really is individual.
