MCQ - 12-1496

Question:

What structure allows a jellyfish (and other cnidarians) to respond to its environment?

  1. central nervous system
  2. nerve net
  3. Gastro-vascular cavity
  4. nerve net

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

Jellyfish employ a loose network of nerves, located in the epidermis, which is called a nerve net. Although traditionally thought not to have a central nervous system, nerve net concentration and ganglion-like structures could be considered to constitute one in most species. A jellyfish detects various stimuli including the touch of other animals via this nerve net, which then transmits impulses both throughout the nerve net and around a circular nerve ring, through the rhopalial lappet, located at the rim of the jellyfish body, to other nerve cells.
