Turritopsis nutricula
The Turritopsis nutricula is able to revert back to a juvenile form once it mates after becoming sexually mature.
Turritopsis Nutricula is technically known as a hydrozoan and is the only known animal that is capable of reverting completely to its younger self.
It does this through the cell development process of transdifferentiation.
Scientists believe the cycle can repeat indefinitely, rendering it potentially immortal.
