| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Cnidarians are always.. | aquatic, mostly marine, organism with distinct radial symmetry. |
| Cnidarians are .... so they have an ectoderm and endoderm with layer between the two called... | diploblastic, mesoglea (the jelly in the jelllyfish) |
| Represent the first phylum with ... | true nerve tissues, the nerve net extends through the body. |
| Cnidarians also have primitive muscle cells called... | epitheliomuscluar cells, which are capable of contraction. |
| They get their name because they have special stinging cells called... | cniodcytes. They also have nematocyst which is a small harpoon like structure and is discharged from the animal. |
| There are two distinct body forms of cnidarian- | Polyp Isessile sedentary) and medusae( are movlie free swiming forms. |
| Three classes of cnidarians: | hydrozoa, Scyphozoa, and Anthoza |

| Hydroids have a dominant | polyp stage |
| Hydra reproduces both sexual and asexually- | asexual reproduction consist of budding and sexual reproduction involves gonads. |
| Colonial polyps come in two types: | hydrotheca (feeding polyps which specialize in prey capture), gonotheca (reproductive polyps containing gonangia) |
| Jellyfish class also know as... is where the medusa is the dominant form in the life cycle. | Scyphozoa. |
| Anthozoas are represented by the sea anemones and corals where the medusa stage is entirely. | absent. |
| Many coral secrete hard _______ ____ around the polyps. The size and shape of these colonies are species-specific. | calcareous skeletons |

| The tentacles are lined with -------, specialized stinging cells. Close examination of these cells hsould reaveal... | cnidocytes- small harmpoon like nematocysts within. |
| In Hydrozoan once the medusae is freed from the polyp it has an umbrella like body called a _____. _____ hang from its free margin, and small orientation-sensitive organs called __________ can be seen near the base o these. Suspended from the center of th | Velum (umbrella body); Tentacles (duh); statocysts (GPS); and the maubrium (mouth like opening) |
