phylum coelenterata (cnidariana) with example
Answers
Explanation:
All coelenterates are aquatic, mostly marine. The bodyform is radially symmetrical, diploblastic and does not have a coelom. The body has a single opening, the hypostome, surrounded by sensory tentacles equipped with either nematocysts or colloblasts to capture mostly planktonic prey.
Some examples of coelenterates include jellyfish, anemones and coral. Historically, scientists used the term “coelenterate,” which refers to the cavity-like bodies of the animals, to identify the phylum now called cnidaria. Allcoelenterates are aquatic, and while most are marine, a few lineages inhabit fresh water.
