As a result or these interactions, the presence of a hypostome inhibits the formation of another hypostome nearby. Removal of the hypostome causes the level of inhibition to fall; regeneration of it restores this level (Webster, 1966).
The polyps of the two observed populations of Alatina cf. moseri showed no distinct differences.[…]The body of the polyp is divided into three parts: the hypostome, the calyx and a stalk region. The latter includes a basal disc and a tiny periderm beaker enveloping the pedal region. The hypostome of polyps of both populations was four-lipped (Fig. 5.33F and G), balloon-shaped and ~14%–15% of the total body length (TBL). It was not completely contractible into the body.

It works by overlapping files inside the zip container, in order to reference a "kernel" of highly compressed data in multiple files, without making multiple copies of it. The zip bomb's output size grows quadratically in the input size; i.e., the compression ratio gets better as the bomb gets bigger.
