他们使用可变的胶原组织 (MCT) 躲避威胁并发动反击。

They evade threats and launch counter-attacks using their mutable collagenous tissue, or MCT. This gel-like tissue contains bundles of collagen, called " fibrils." Proteins can interact with these fibrils to slide them together, stiffening the tissue, or apart, softening it.

他们使用可变的胶原组织 (MCT) 躲避威胁并发动反击。 这种凝胶状组织含有成束的胶原蛋白， 称为“原纤维” 。蛋白质可以与这些原纤维相互作用， 使它们滑动在一起， 使组织变硬， 或分开，使其软化。
