a kind of leg
It is possible to determine the kind of food an animal eats from the appearance of its mouth-parts. For example, an animal with a proboscis will consume liquid food.
Jellyfish have cells called cnidocytes, which contain nematocysts, and located on their tentacles, mainly. Whenever a prey comes in contact with cnidocilia (structures of the cnidocytes), hundreds to thousands of cnidae (filaments of the nematocysts) are ejected into the prey 's direction; nematocysts' cnidae inoculate a poisonous or allergenic mixture into the prey 's body; the prey , if live, die by osmotic shock, paralysis or anaphylactic shock and is then brought to the mouth with tentacles or with oral arms. Jellyfish of the Order Rhizostomeae have no tentacles, instead they have cnidocytes on the manubrium (oral arms).Since jellyfish do not have eyes, they have to hunt passively. This means they just wave around their tentacles and hope for something to brush against its tentacles. When something does come in contact with its tentacles, it will fire out nematocysts and inject the prey with toxin and hope to have paralyzed or killed the prey.
the kind i enjoy in my mouth
They kind of look like the Gree (due to their gray skin and tentacles; except for the fish-like eyes and mouth, and extensible necks).
Bolus isn't a specific kind of food. A bolus is a chewed up mass of food that is (generally) on its way from the mouth to the stomach.
The crayfish's mouth is located underneath their head. They are able to chew and crush their food by the mandibles.
Yes, they do. Depending on what kind of jellyfish determines what they look like. Often time, the tentacles do the stinging.
An amphibians' rule of thumb is if it fits in their mouth, then it is food.
A jellyfish will eat whatever prey it can subdue with the stinging cells of its tentacles, however, prey is often limited by size or the strength of the particular species of jellyfish's venom. Some jellyfish, such as the upsidedown jellyfish, do not eat prey, instead deriving all nutrition from zooxanthellae symbiotes. Once prey has been subdued, the tentacles manipulate the prey through the mouth and into the stomach, where it is exposed to digestive enzymes and broken down into nutrients and absorbed.
Your saliva breaks down the food along with your teeth and your tongue helps you swallow it.
