Platypus Plankton Planula (a jellyfish)
The jellyfish life cycle is; planula larva, polyp, budding polyp, ephyra, medusa
The life cycle of a jellyfish is planula - polyp - polyp budding - ephyra - medusa.
A newly born jellyfish is called a "planula." After fertilization, the planula larva develops from the fertilized egg and eventually settles on a surface, where it transforms into a polyp stage. The polyp then undergoes a process called strobilation, producing juvenile jellyfish known as ephyrae, which mature into adult jellyfish.
