Plasmodial slime mold.
<P>
   One  large cell (plasmodium) with thousands of nuclei is formed during
   the diploid, feeding stage of the life cycle.
<P>
   The  plasmodium  moves  slowly  as an amoeboid mass by "streaming" its
   cytoplasm.
<P>
   Note: Plasmodium is a different protozoan which causes malaria.
