How do fish and jellyfish swim?

Fish move by flapping their fins or through wriggling movements of their body. In addition, they have an air bladder, which they can fill with gases when needed. These features make them lighter and they can float in the water like a submarine. Jellyfish usually drift. To move forward, they pull together their cap and push the water downwards—a same recoil principle that is used in jet fighters and octopuses.
