Animal Reproduction Interactivity Can you describe how an aquarium moon jellyfish population will change over time?

Record Data and Observations

Part 1 Explore the Life Cycle

For each transition in the jellyfish life cycle, indicate whether it is the result of growth, sexual reproduction, or asexual reproduction. Provide the evidence that supports your choice for each.

Adult medusas to larvae

Larva to polyp

Polyp to reproducing polyp

Reproducing polyp to juvenile medusas

Juvenile medusas to adult medusas

Analyze and Conclude

1. Draw Conclusions Once polyps have been established and are producing juvenile medusas, is sexual reproduction required to provide adult medusas for the exhibit? Explain why or why not.

2. Scientific Writing The museum has asked you to make a sign for the exhibit. Visitors will read the sign when guides and volunteers are not available to talk about the exhibit. Using the information gathered in this interactivity, write a paragraph that describes what visitors may see in the tank and explains the reproductive cycle of jellyfish.
