Among their many tentacles, some jellyfish have parts known as oral arms. These long appendages move captured prey to the animal's mouth, which is usually found on the underside of the bell. Some species have even ditched a mouth entirely. These jellies ingest food directly through openings in their oral arms.
What is a jellyfish's mouth called?
Four long tentacles, commonly called mouth, or oral, arms, hang from the centre of the underside, where the mouth of the jellyfish is located.
What happens if you cut a jellyfish in half?
If you cut a jellyfish in half, the pieces of the jellyfish can regenerate and turn into two new jellies.
