Dogs like to sniff and mark their territory and most dogs are extremely clean and prefer a clean area to do their business on.

What is the difference between a jellyfish and shellfish?

There are alot of differences between these two marine creatures.

Just generally:

Turtles are a reptile that have the trunk of their bodies encased in a hard shell.

Jellyfish are umbrella looking and have soft gelatine-like (jelly) bodies. They have tentacles trailing from the bottom, which in some species can be toxic.

ADDED. Another difference: predator and prey. Turtles, or some species of them at least, eat jellyfish! This explains the distressing number of turtles dying having mistaken floating polythene bags for jellyfish.

jellyfish do hunt. They try to catch small prey around them, but sometimes find that dead or alive will fall into their tentacles. :)

How do crystal jellyfish reproduce?

Crystals reproduce by alternating between asexual benthic polyps and seasonal planktonic medusae.

The juveniles are budded off large hydroid colonies in early spring, say the researchers, and quickly become free swimming. They grow very quickly and then began producing gametes for sexual reproduction.

The eggs are free-spawned and quickly settle out to make a new colony. They thrive on the hard rocky substrates (bottom). The cue that makes them continue with a new generation is most likely a change in water temperature, which shocks the colonies into strobulation.

They are amazing!!

Can you cook and eat a jellyfish?

Ocean sunfish and leatherback turtles can eat jellyfish, but surprisingly don't get hurt by the stinging tentacles!

Do clear jellyfish sting?

Stinging cells are activated only if the jellyfish touch and recognize some specific organic compounds; in this way, they don't sting themselves, other jellyfishes of the same species (and probably some similar ones), while can recognize and sting some other cnidarians; however, is possible that the nervous system, in some cases, can choose, independently from the specific stinging cell receptions, to sting or not.
