Is a jet propulsion is gas?
No it's water released out of the Siphon.
How do giant squids move by jet propulsion?
This is a very good question. Squids move through the water at high speeds using a jet propulsion-like organ called a "siphon". What the siphon does is take in water and thrust it out, much like a jet engine. The end result is the jet-like streamline of a squid.
Where does the jet of water come from a giant squid?
The squid sucks up water a tube called the siphon, then shoots it out to provide locomotion by jet propulsion.
Do squid use a form of jet propulsion for locomotion?
The squid has a muscular mantle (outer covering) which, when expanded, fills with water. When these muscles contract, water is expelled through a single siphon and the squid is propelled in the opposite direction. The squid can control its direction by rotating (moving) the siphon.

Which marine mammal moves through the ocean using a jet of water forced out of the body by a siphon?
Sounds like you are talking about octopus and squids which are not mammals.
How does waste exit a squid?
Waste exits a squid by being transported through the anus and out of the siphon.
What is the benefit of a Siphon?
A siphon enables the animal to squirt water, and move quickly by jet propulsion. Squids do this if they need a quick burst of speed, to grab prey or escape, and scallops use it to swim up and around, for example (look it up on YouTube, it looks really nonsensical!).
What force is it when a squid expels water out its back end?
The opposite direction of the water it moved.
What do squid siphons do?
Siphons can be used as a form of locomotion. Water goes into the siphon and shoots out and acts as a form of jet propulsion, directing the squid in the way it wants to go.
What is sir isaac newtons third law of motion?
His third law is For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. An example of this is the principle of jet propulsion or the movement of a squid using its siphon
How does a jet siphon toilet work?
works by the Venturi Priciple: water pushed down the syphon tube creates low presssure in the bowl thus sucking the water and contents with it. Danielle
