Best Answer

Jellyfish are made up of cells, much like any other multi-cellular organism. Their unusual jelly-like quality is the result of having cartilage but no skeleton.

Depending on the species, the body contains between 95 and 98% water. Most of the umbrella mass is a gelatinous material - the jelly - called mesoglea which is surrounded by two layers of protective skin.
They are not fish, 95% water. Just made of cells.

Why is jellyfish called so?

It is called a jellyfish because it lives in the sea, although it isn't a fish. The "jelly" comes from the texture of its body, which is wet and slimy, similar to jelly.
