The statement you provided is partially accurate but oversimplified.

Turritopsis dohrnii, often called the "immortal jellyfish," can revert to its juvenile form (a polyp) after reaching maturity through a process called transdifferentiation. This ability allows it to potentially bypass death by cycling between life stages, theoretically making it "biologically immortal." However, this isn't the same as true immortality, as the jellyfish can still die from disease, predation, or environmental factors. The comparison to making a genetically identical offspring is not entirely accurate since the process is more complex than simple reproduction.
