[4] Nautilus can occasionally be found closer to the surface than 100 metres, however, the minimum depth they can reach is determined by factors such as water temperature and season. [4]
Nautili are free swimming animals that possess a head with two simple lens-free eyes and arms (or tentacles). They have a smooth shell over a large body chamber, which is divided into subchambers filled with an inert gas (similar to the composition of atmospheric air, but with more nitrogen and less oxygen ) making the animal neutrally buoyant ...
