Let's Learn About Life cycle of jellyfish

Most people know only the jellyfish, which has been fully developed.  The jellyfish is a transparent, bell-like creature that we always find  on sandy beaches. The fact is that the life cycle of jellyfish is very  complex. It passes through at

least six different evolutionary stages

Eggs and sperm are the most important stages of the jellyfish life cycle

Jellyfish  Like most other animals reproduce sexually, this means that adult  jellyfish are either male or female, jellyfish possess genital organs  called gonads which produce sperm in males and eggs in females, and when  jellyfish are ready to mate, the male Jellyfish  release sperm through the opening of the mouth located on the underside  of their bell or body. In some species of jellyfish, eggs are placed on  incubator bags or egg bags on the upper part of the female arms  surrounding jellyfish. Eggs are fertilized when swimming. method To male sperm, and in other species of jellyfish harbor the female  eggs inside her mouth and swam the male sperm into the female jellyfish  belly, the fertilized eggs will later leave the stomach and hang on the  arms of female jellyfish

Banyola larvae from the life cycle stages of jellyfish

After  fertilizing female jellyfish eggs by male sperm, they are subject to  typical embryonic development such as all animals, and hatching eggs,  free larvae of free blanula, exiting the mouth of jellyfish females or  of incubator bags attached to the plants. The larvae are small oval And  the outer layer of them are lined with fine hairs called cilia that  help the larva to rush into the water, however, the kinetic force  produced by the cilia is very small compared to the movement of ocean  currents that can move the larva to very long distances, and the larvae  can float on the surface If water is not eaten by predators, the larvae quickly fall down and  settle in the solid substrate and begin to develop into the next stage  of the tumor
The tumor is from the stages of the jellyfish life cycle

When  the larvae descend to the seabed, they attach themselves to a hard  surface and turn into a tumor, also known as stomachache. The tumor is a  cylindrical, leg like structure. At the base of the tumor is a disc that  sticks to the substrate. At the head is the opening of the mouth  surrounded by small probes. By  dragging food to the mouth, when the tumor grows, the tumor starts to  sprout a new tumor from the leg area, and the growth continues and the  buds form a colony of tumors. When benign tumors reach the proper size  that can take several years, they begin the next stage in the Handily  life cycle the sea.

Almira and Medusa from the life cycle of jellyfish

When  the colony is ready for the next stage of development, the tumor stem  begins to develop the horizontal grooves, a process known as  strangulation, and these grooves continue to deepen until they resemble a  pile of dishes, and the upper grooves mature faster and faster and turn  into small jellyfish known as Alvira With  arms that resemble the arms of the jellyfish to a certain extent, and  the process of budding that comes out of the tumors and the form of  aphira is a non-sexual reproduction, which means that the jellyfish  reproduce sexually and sexually, and swim freely in the water and  gradually turn into adult jellyfish which Mei Almidosa which possesses a smooth and transparent body
