Answer:

The missing step on Connor's list is the medusae bud off the polyp after step 5.

Explanation:

Portuguese man-of-war (Physalia physalis) is a cnidary -which is considered very poisonous to other species, including humans- and is not properly a jellyfish, but rather a set of different organisms (hydroids) grouped into a colonial organism. However, its life cycle is like that of jellyfish.

The life cycle of a  Portuguese man-of-war is:

  • <em>Release of gametes in the water. </em>
  • <em>External fertilization </em>
  • <em>Formation of the planula, larva provided with cilia that swims freely .</em>
  • <em>Planula adheres to a surface to form the polyp or scifistoma. </em>
  • <em>The polyp can produce jellyfish larvae by gemmation (not fragmentation) in the oral pole of this polyp, the strobilus. </em>
  • <em>Finally, the star-shaped larvae detach from the strobilus and after a while become their adult form.</em>

In Connor's list, the missing step is the release of larvae from the polyp, after step 5.
