People call these fascinating creatures 'jellyfish'. Jellyfish belong to a diverse group known as cnidarians. This diverse group also includes corals and sea anemones. Humans view jellyfish with both awe and caution, largely due to their sting that causes discomfort. The bell-shaped body of a jellyfish pulsates continuously for propulsion purposes, much like a heartbeat in human anatomy. Some species use long tentacles that have tiny venomous cells called nematocysts at the tips to snare prey and defend themselves against predators. Humans must exercise care around jellyfish since stings can bring about intense pain or swelling of the affected skin area. In certain cultures, humans consume dried and pickled jellyfish as a delicacy, with nutritional value. The bell's translucent quality gives humans an unusual visual appeal in observing jellyfish in aquariums and during swimming experiences near the ocean shorelines.
