The mangrove jellyfish always appears to be the wrong way round or upside down but in acctual fact that is one of the beauties of the jellyfish. It will lie in the water pretending to be dead or asleep when actually the jellyfish is supposed to be like this and when its pray comes near it will reach out its tentacles and electricute the pray.
they take a deep breath, exhale really hard and fast so that they get thrusted outside of the water, into the air and when they come back down they are upside down.
Jellyfish
There are many different type of jellyfish, so there is no specific genus and species for all of them. For example, the Upside-Down jellyfish is called Cassiopea xamachana. The moon jellyfish is Aurelia aurita.
The jellyfish doesn't do photosynthesis, the algae living on it does
They live pretty deep down.
You have described body plan of a medusa...... and a jellyfish is a good example of a medusa.
Well, once a wise man by the name of Justin Timberlake did an expierment testing how long Jellyfish can survive upsidown. Non of them lasted a second (yes every species). But when Kevin Federline did this same expeirment nothing happened. Its your decission.
