Did you know about jellyfish:-
Here's a comprehensive overview of jellyfish:

**1. Anatomy:**
- **Body Structure:** Jellyfish are gelatinous, umbrella-shaped creatures with a soft, transparent body.
- **Tentacles:** They have long, trailing tentacles equipped with stinging cells (nematocysts) for capturing prey.

**2. Habitat:**
- Jellyfish are found in oceans worldwide, from surface waters to the deep sea.
- They thrive in both warm and cold environments.

**3. Life Cycle:**
- The life cycle of a jellyfish typically includes a medusa stage (adult), a polyp stage (young), and a larval stage.
- Some species exhibit both sexual and asexual reproduction.

**4. Diet and Feeding:**
- Jellyfish are carnivorous, feeding on plankton, small fish, and other small marine organisms.
- They use their tentacles to capture prey, paralyze it with stinging cells, and then bring it to their central mouth.

**5. Movement:**
- Jellyfish move by contracting and relaxing their bell-shaped bodies, propelling themselves through the water.
- They are primarily drifters, relying on ocean currents for movement.

**6. Bioluminescence:**
- Some jellyfish species are bioluminescent, emitting light for various purposes, including attracting prey or deterring predators.

**7. Stinging Cells:**
- Nematocysts in jellyfish tentacles are specialized cells that inject toxins into their prey or potential threats.
- Jellyfish stings can be painful to humans and, in some cases, may cause allergic reactions.

**8. Species Diversity:**
- There are thousands of species of jellyfish, ranging in size from a few millimeters to several meters in diameter.
- Notable species include the box jellyfish, lion's mane jellyfish, and moon jellyfish.

**9. Environmental Impact:**
- In certain conditions, jellyfish populations can experience rapid increases, forming blooms that may impact fisheries and other marine ecosystems.

**10. Adaptations:**
- Jellyfish have evolved various adaptations, such as transparency and pulsating movements, to avoid predators.
- Some species can enter a state of suspended animation when exposed to unfavorable conditions.
