How can jelly fish produce electricity?

Jellyfish do not generate electricity. I thought jellyfish did generate elctricity when i was small because that is how Cartoons depicted it. Instead, they sting and youre reaction would be ike you have just be electricuted.

Jellyfish stings are an all-too-common health hazard for beach vacationers. While most jellyfish stings are harmless (with a few exceptions), they can be extremely painful. The stinging sensation results when stingers at the ends of the tentacles of jellyfish and other aquatic animals come into contact with human skin, usually while wading or swimming in the ocean.

Answer 2

Jellyfish produce a small amount of electricity due to specialized proteins in their bodies that create a weak electric field. This is used for communication, navigation, and sometimes to stun prey. However, the amount of electricity that jellyfish can produce is very low and not useful for human applications.

Crystal jellyfish (Aequorea victoria) is an eterotroph organism that get energy from proteins and sugars absorbed after digesting their food.
