Tentacles collect food primarily through a combination of sensory detection and physical manipulation. Many organisms, such as octopuses and certain jellyfish, use their tentacles to sense their environment and locate prey. Once detected, the tentacles can grasp or capture the food, often bringing it to the mouth. Additionally, specialized cells on the tentacles, like cnidocytes in jellyfish, can help immobilize or deter prey before consumption.
