    Cnidaria and Nematocysts

    • 463 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Cnidaria, also called Coelenterata, is a large phylum of marine organisms with around 10,000 species. These species are corals, jellyfish, various plant-like organisms, as well as many others. These are all very different from each other, except for one similar attribute. They all have Nematocysts, which are stinging cells used by all Cnidaria for either defense or hunting. Nematocysts have a variety of functions to fulfill these tasks. The organism can use them by wrapping them around food or making it sticky so that the food is not able to escape. They can also use them in a more spear-like way of penetrating surfaces or secreting their poison into the water. Organisms such as jellyfish and sea anemones are widely known for their Nematocysts, which they use to capture fish for food. Nematocysts are very small, they cannot be seen by the human eye, and can only be activated once; afterward a new one grows and replaces the old.…

Roundworms have a complete digestive system with two separate openings one for food and one for getting rid of waste. This type of digestive system is very common in complex animal. Nematodes use external and internal pressure and body movement to move food through their digestive tracts. As the round worm grows it molts and forms new cuticles. Most Nematodes are microscopic though a few parasitic forms can grow to be several inches in length. Round worms eat bacteria, algae and fungi. Reproduction in roundworms is mostly…
