Stephanie Meyer tried to answer this question on her website, explaining that unlike the other vampires powers, Jasper's power is actually affecting Bella physically by adjusting her pulse and endorphins to calm her down.
Bella's gift is her very powerful shield – one that has been growing and working without her knowing since she was born. Because of her shield, she is protected from powers of the mind – that means that Edward (and Aro) can't read her thoughts, Kate can't shock her, and Jane can't cause her pain.
From the books, we learn that Jasper's power works on Bella because his power is physical and not mental. He adjusts her pulse and endorphins to calm her down etc.
The explanation then goes on to inform readers that between the cells is a liquid moving throughout the body similar to how blood moves through humans. But this liquid comes in the form of venom. The venom, Stephenie writes, is what helps Edward impregnate Bella in the fictional book.

Jacob is further stunned when Edward suggested that Jacob be the one to give Bella what she wants in the form of a baby. He explained how he wanted Jacob to help him convince Bella to abort the baby so that she can eventually become pregnant with Jacob's baby.
Carlisle's gift is an elevated sense of compassion that allows him to resist human blood. He is able to bite (in order to turn them) people without succumbing to the frenzy and killing them.
Edward had a theory that Bella's overwhelmingly appealing blood may be derived from a mixture of her parents'—Renée's being far too sweet and Charlie's being moderate—together, giving her blood a more powerful appeal.
Rosalie Hale Embodies Enhanced Beauty and Self-Control
Rosalie Hale was born in 1915 and was changed by Carlisle when she was 18 years old. She has enhanced beauty beyond that of a typical vampire, and, like her husband, Emmett, her gift is only a slight boost over others of her kind.
Edward can typically hear people's detailed thoughts, but in "Midnight Sun," he says Charlie's thoughts are always a bit shielded. This might also explain where Bella gets her mind powers from and why Edward can't read her thoughts either.
Edward is reluctant to change Bella into a vampire, believing that becoming a vampire will destroy her soul. Bella agrees to marry Edward on the condition that he will make love to her while she is still human and then turn her into a vampire.
Shield penetration is Renesmee Cullen's theorized ability to destroy or penetrate a mental shield. Aside from this gift, she also shows the power of tactile thought projection, which she can use to show people her thoughts and memories, with this power to break through their mental defenses.
Given that he (in the books, at least) was physically similar to Rosalie, it was decided that they could pass as twins, and so Jasper changed his surname to Hale instead of Cullen, which helped the coven pass as a family of adopted children.
In Eclipse, Alice explains that since her visions are no illusion of the mind, but rooted into reality, she can see Bella's future. On occasion, Alice's predictions come a feelings instead of visions if a certain future is far off and yet to be set in stone.
Renesmee can survive on either blood or human food, though she prefers blood, and she does not produce venom. Her special abilities are transmitting thoughts to others by touching their skin and penetrating mental shields, the opposite abilities of each of her parents.
After her transformation, she tortured and killed those who had attacked her, including Royce, but did not drink their blood, a fact that she is proud of. Apart from Carlisle and Edward, she has the most self-control and appreciation for human life, and has never tasted human blood.
To prevent her from turning into a vampire, Carlisle instructs Edward to suck the venom from Bella's blood. Edward is afraid to taste Bella's blood, unsure if he'll be able to stop once the venom is gone, but he finally decides to do it.
Edward only stops drinking Bella's blood because he hears her voice. In the film, Carlisle tells Edward he needs to find the will to allow himself to stop drinking Bella's blood after he extracts venom from it. As a result, Edward starts seeing visions of his time with Bella that bring him out of a slight frenzy.
Amun Is The Oldest Vampire
However, readers and viewers did get to know a bit about his personality and the dynamics with his coven. Amun was actually mistrustful and paranoid, and he was especially protective of Benjamin.
1 Benjamin Could Easily Manipulate The Four Elements
The most prized member of the Egyptian coven, Benjamin was the strongest vampire and had the power of elemental manipulation.
Carlisle Cullen earned his wealth in Twilight through compound interest and several shrewd long-term investments with significant help from Alice Cullen, whose precognitive gifts allowed the family to predict changes in the stock market and invest accordingly.
When they phase into a wolf for the first time, they stop aging. There are plenty-a-plot-holes here BUT if Jacob maintains a regularly scheduled shape shift, he can essentially stay young forever. This is a good thing because Renesmee will be Jacob's age physically in a mere few years.
He knows everything about her. He should be able to smell the blood, but even if not, he's paying so much attention to her, there's no way he didn't pick up on when her period is.
Bella's Anger At His Imprinting Is Hypocritical
While she's a little unsure about the concept of imprinting at first, she comes around to it after Jacob explains that even if they imprint on a young girl, like Quil, who imprints on a two-year-old, their feelings won't be romantic until she is of age.
