When they are injured, deep-sea creatures called comb jellies can fuse their bodies together to become one. Their nervous ...

Whether comb jellies are older than sponges in the tree of life is a longstanding debate in evolutionary biology circles, but the study demonstrates that distal regulation arose at least one ...

The authors of the study made the discovery by exploring the genomes of many of the oldest branches on the animal family tree, including comb jellies like the 'sea walnut' (Mnemiopsis leidyi ...

We're not talking about sharks, but be assured, they're there, too. We're talking about jellyfish. Here's what to know about them before you enter the water. While not fatal, some jellyfish stings ...

The authors of the study made the discovery by exploring the genomes of many of the oldest branches on the animal family tree, including comb jellies like the ‘sea walnut’ (Mnemiopsis leidyi), ...

To observe this bizarre behavior, the team placed 65 adult comb jellies in tanks without food for over two weeks. The conditions were harsh, but the results were stunning. Rather than simply ...

The long-distance regulation of genes is older than previous studies suggest, and is seen in ctenophores, or comb jellies, including the ‘sea walnut’ (Mnemiopsis leidyi) pictured above. (Image Credit: ...
