a minute freshwater coelenterate with a stalk-like tubular body and a ring of tentacles around the mouth.
Although hydra are fairly simple animals, the stinging cells which they use to catch their prey are quite complex structures. They have a number of different types of stinging cells, called nematocysts, on their tentacles. ... A second kind of nematocyst, which may have barbs or spines on it, is also fired into the prey.
