Instead the cells of their primitive nervous system, known as a nerve net, are fused together, forming a syncytium—“an entirely new way to build a nervous system,” Dunn says.

If we keep at it, we will become a computer to end all computers, capable of fusing all the thoughts of the world into a syncytium.

Externally is a thin cuticle; this covers the epidermis, which consists of a syncytium with no cell limits.

Inside the syncytium is a not very regular layer of circular muscle fibres, and within this again some rather scattered longitudinal fibres; there is no endothelium.
