How do jellyfish catch fish?
Jellyfish catch fish primarily using their tentacles, which are lined with specialized cells called cnidocytes that contain stinging structures called nematocysts. When a fish comes into contact with the jellyfish's tentacles, the nematocysts fire, injecting toxins that paralyze or immobilize the prey. The jellyfish then moves its tentacles to bring the incapacitated fish to its mouth for consumption. This method allows jellyfish to capture prey effectively, despite their passive drifting nature in the water.
