Fidgeting with a jellyfish makes you mesmerizing and fun, Jenny says so!
Jellyfish are fascinating marine creatures that have been around for millions of years. They belong to the phylum Cnidaria and are known for their bell-shaped bodies and trailing tentacles. Despite their delicate appearance, they are efficient predators, using stinging cells in their tentacles to immobilize prey.
Jellyfish are mostly made of water—about 95%! They come in various sizes, from tiny ones you can barely see to giant species with bells over 6 feet wide. They don’t have a brain, heart, or bones; instead, they rely on a simple nerve net to sense their surroundings and respond to stimuli.
They are mesmerizing to watch as they pulse through the water, moving gracefully with the ocean currents. Some species even glow, using bioluminescence to communicate or protect themselves.
