Bilateral symmetry   a body plan in which both sides around the central axis mirror each other  
🗑
Radial symmetry   a body plan in which there is a central disc with other body parts radiating from the center  
🗑
Phylum Porifera   Possess 1-3 body forms: Asconoid, Syconoid and Leuconoid; The body form is based on the folding of the body wall with the Asconoid form being the least folded; also classified into 3 classes Calcarea, Hexactinellida, Demospongiae  
🗑
Calcarea   contains sponges with spicules made of calcium carbonate and Asconoid, Syconoid and Leuconoid body forms  
🗑
Hexactinellida   contains sponges with spicules made of silica and a Syconoid body form  
🗑
Demospongiae   are sponges with spicules made of calcium and spongin (collagen) and which possess a Leuconoid body form  
🗑
Metagenesis   alternation of generations between sexual and asexual reproduction; exhibit both body forms in their life cycle  
🗑
Obelia   life cycle of cnidarians  
🗑
cniodcyst   stinging cells that tentacles have

🗑
Cnidarians are classified into three classes:   Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa, and Anthozoa  
🗑
Class Hydrozoa   Most are metagenic and colonial; Obelia and Physalia. A notable, freshwater exception is Hydra which is solitary and basically only a polyp  
🗑
Class Scyphozoa   Dominated by marine cnidarians with the medusa body form. These are sometimes referred to as the “True Jellyfish” (Aurelia is a typical example).

Class Anthozoa   Contains both solitary and colonial members in which the medusa stage is completely absent, This class includes the hard corals (brain and staghorn), anemones, and soft corals (sea fans, sea pansies and sea whips).
