      That is a great question. This bizarre jelly fish that grows old and then has the ability to ‘grow young’ is quite unique. Scientists are studying this relatively simple animal, but our biochemistry is quite different from such simple organisms…but it may give us some clues to how this animal can put its life cycle into reverse!
