What is the Sea nettle?

Sea nettle is a type of stinging jellyfish found in Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. These jelly include several species, all in the family Chrysaora . The most extensive species are Chrysaora Fuscescens , common to Pacific Water and Chrysaora Quinquecirrh , commonly found in the Atlantic. Although they have a nervous system, they have no brain. Jellyfish also have a basic digestive and respiratory system. The end from the upper disk is oral or mouth, arms that are responsible for bringing food to the mouth part of the upper area, as well as tentacles that contain toxin in stinging jellyfish, which is injected into the prey of the animal or potential predators. Four arm mouths can be up to 15 feet (4.6 m) long. Numerous tentacles are often slightly shorter than weapons. Thin tentacles are located around the outer edge of the bell and can easily be distinguished from the fluffy, frilled arms that surround them. These tentacles contain stabbing cells.

Sea nettle uses its tentacles for both hunting and defense. In general, she eats Zooplankton, larvae and other jellyfish. When her prey touches the tentacles, stinging cells injure toxin into the animal. Then the prey moves to the oral shoulders, where the food is transferred to the mouth of the jellyfish.

When the Sea nettle devises a threat, it can also use a stab for defense. Toxin paralyzes large animals and can cause the death of small creatures. In humans, sea nettle stings usually cause severe pain and rash, but may be fatal if the victim is allergic natoxin or in the case of multiple points. Jellyfish swim in swarms, so people are always advised to avoid areas where they can be seen or are known to be.
