Deniz üzümü: Kordatlar sınıfına giren, ilkel bir deniz hayvanı. Fıçı(ucu açık üzüm) şeklinde olan bir hayvan. İlkel görünümlü olduğu için hayvan olduğunu farketmek zordur. En büyük özelliği, bir su jeti gibi içine aldığı suyu fışkırtmasıdır, bu yüzden ingilizcede "sea squirt" olarak adlandırılmıştır

An ascidian
under Tunicata
Any of various sedentary tunicates of the class Ascidiacea, having a transparent sac-shaped body with two siphons. Also called ascidian. Any tunicate in the class Ascidiacea; found in seas worldwide. Resembling potatoes more than animals, they are permanently fixed to a surface. A forceful contraction of the adult's vaselike body shoots a jet of seawater when it is disturbed. They filter-feed near the shore on debris from dead plants and animals and, in deeper water, on plankton. Adults, from less than 1 in. to 1 ft (2-30 cm) long, have functional male and female reproductive organs. The free-swimming, tadpolelike larvae hatch from eggs shed by one individual and fertilized by another. Some species live individually, others in colonies
