The "jelly layer" of jellyfish (and other cnidarians) is called the "mesoglea." The mesoglea is a gelatinous, mostly acellular layer composed of fibrous proteins, such as collagen. The mesoglea often have some muscle fiber bundles and nerves to maintain the mesoglea's form, as well as some amoebocyte cells to consume debris and invading pathogens. The mesoglea serves as an internal skeleton to help the cnidarian retain its form after it relaxes from contracting.

What substance allows the moon jelly to float in the water?
It is called the mesoglea, or the middle layer between the outer ectodermal tissue and the inner gastrodermal tissue. Jellyfish are considered diploblastic, or two tissued. A secretional, gelatinous substance makes up the mesoglea and it provides the jellyfish with several benefits. Since it is less dense than the cellular parts of the organism, it allows the jellyfish to have neutral buoyancy. It also gives the bell some rigidity, and the ability to spring back after muscular contractions.
What does the presence of only two tissue layers make cnidarians?
The presence of only two tissues layers makes cnidarians diploblastic. These tissues layers consist of an epidermis (outer layer) and a gastrodermis (inner gut layer). Mesoglea, a type of jelly-like substance is between these layers.
What do all jellyfish have in common?

What type of tissue makes up the endothelium of capillaries?
Single layer of Simple Squamous Epithelium
What connective tissue forms protective layer of eye?
Fibrous connective tissue which is the type of tissue that makes up the tendons and ligaments in your body. This connective tissue is comprised of mainly collagenous and elastic fibers.
Does the jellyfish belong to the arthropoda group?
Yes jellyfish are qualified to be invertebrates. Yes they are all invertebrates they don't even have brains and they are 95% water.The jelly fish do not have bones, if that is what you're asking. So no they don't have a vertebra. That makes them invertebrates.
