The animal you are referring to is a jellyfish. Jellyfish have a bell-shaped body that resembles an umbrella and possess specialized cells called cnidocytes that contain stinging structures used for defense and capturing prey.
coelenterateJelly fish have a body plan that is described by biologists as coelenterate. They are eyeless, brainless, boneless and made up of 95% water.
A bell is the part of the jellyfish, that does NOT sting. The bell only lifts up like a umbrella, and down. It pushes out water, and makes the jellyfish move forward ONLY!!
Jellyfish do not have a head: they are radially symmetrical animals that have a sack-like body with a single opening serving as a mouth, and a bell extending out from the bottom of the sack that allows the jellyfish to swim.
Jelly fish have a BELL which they contract and expand - like an umbrella opening and closing. This propels them through the water.
when they move it's like the opening and closing of an umbrella underwater when the body wall relaxes, the inner surface of coelenterons is increased so the water enter the body but when the body wall contracts it pushes the water out suddenly and thus the jellyfish moves forward. They move through the water by radially expanding and contracting their bell-shaped bodies to push water behind them.
Jellyfish can look like clear plastic, with a shape like a mushroom or umbrella. The body of a jellyfish is shaped like a bell or umbrella, with a clear, jellylike material filling most of the space between the upper and lower surfaces. A mouth is located in the center of the undersurface and tentacles dangle from the bell margin. Many jellyfish are colored, with pink or orange internal structures visible through the colorless or delicately tinted bell, and all are exquisitely designed; they are among the most beautiful of animal types.
it is shaped roughly like a bell... a bell curve.
The animal is a jellyfish. Jellyfish have umbrella-shaped bodies and possess specialized stinging cells called cnidocytes, which they use for prey capture and defense.
Moon jellies are translucent, appearing almost colorless with a delicate shimmer that makes them look like they are glowing. They have a saucer-like shape with short tentacles hanging down in a fringe along the edge of their bell. These jellyfish have a gentle pulsing movement as they drift through the water.
Box jellyfish (class Cubozoa) are cnidarian invertebratesdistinguished by their cube-shaped medusae. Box jellyfish most visibly differ from the Scyphozoan jellyfish in that they are rounded box shape, rather than domed or crown-shaped.
Phyllorhiza punctata is a speciesof jellyfish, also known as the floating bell because it looks like a floating bell. It also resembles a very large mushroom. It has white spots.
