    		Both mature in reverse.
    Turritopsis nutricula is a hydrozoan with a life cycle in which it reverts to the polyp stage after becoming sexually mature. It is the only known case of a metazoan capable of reverting completely to a sexually immature, colonial stage after having reached sexual maturity as a solitary stage.

    Benjamin Button in the short story by F Scott Fitzgerald and in the recent motion picture starring Brad Pitt was born old aged and reverted to a child as time passed.
