Step-by-Step Solution:
#### 1.
Identify the Animals:
-
Jellyfish: Represented by a jellyfish icon.
-
Crab: Represented by a crab icon.
-
Seashell: Represented by a seashell icon.
-
Starfish: Represented by a starfish icon.
#### 2.
Count Each Animal:
-
Jellyfish:
- First row: 2 jellyfish.
- Second row: 2 jellyfish.
- Third row: 1 jellyfish.
- Total: \(2 + 2 + 1 = 5\).
-
Crab:
- First row: 0 crabs.
- Second row: 1 crab.
- Third row: 1 crab.
- Total: \(0 + 1 + 1 = 2\).
-
Seashell:
- First row: 2 seashells.
- Second row: 2 seashells.
- Third row: 1 seashell.
- Total: \(2 + 2 + 1 = 5\).
-
Starfish:
- First row: 1 starfish.
- Second row: 1 starfish.
- Third row: 3 starfish.
- Total: \(1 + 1 + 3 = 5\).
#### 3.
Record Tally Marks:
-
Tally marks are recorded as groups of 5 (four vertical lines with a diagonal line crossing them).
- For example, 5 is represented as: |||||.
#### 4.
Fill in the Table:
| ANIMAL | TALLY | NUMBER |
|-----------|-------------|--------|
| Jellyfish | ||||| | 5 |
| Crab | || | 2 |
| Seashell | ||||| | 5 |
| Starfish | ||||| | 5 |

Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}
\hline
\text{ANIMAL} & \text{TALLY} & \text{NUMBER} \\
\hline
\text{Jellyfish} & ||||| & 5 \\
\hline
\text{Crab} & || & 2 \\
\hline
\text{Seashell} & ||||| & 5 \\
\hline
\text{Starfish} & ||||| & 5 \\
\hline
\end{array}
}
