Phylum Cnidaria 1
3
Phylum Cnidaria • Radial symmetry • Mouth at oral end surrounded by tentacles. • One opening into and out of gastrovascular cavity. • Cnidocytes that discharge pneumatocysts • Two body forms – Polyp – Medusa • Two germ layers 4 • Nerve net
Radial symmetry 5
Mouth and Tentacles 6
Cnidarians are the oldest existing animals that have specialized tissues. • Cnidarians have two body forms. – polyps In the polyp form of a coral, the tentacles and mouth face upward.
– medusas In the medusa form of a jellyfish, the tentacles and mouth face downward.
• The four major cnidarian classes are defined by their dominant body form. – Anthozoans such as sea anemones have a dominant polyp stage.
• The four major cnidarian classes are defined by their dominant body form. – Hydrozoans such as hydra alternate between forms.
• The four major cnidarian classes are defined by their dominant body form. – Scyphozoans are jellyfish with a dominant medusa form.
• The four major cnidarian classes are defined by their dominant body form. • Cubozoans such as sea wasps have a dominant medusa form. 12

• Cnidarians are made up of two tissue layers separated by mesoglea. gastrovascular cavity mouth • The outer tissue layer has three cell types. – contracting cells – nerve cells – cnidocytes (which contain nematocysts) discharged nematocyst barbs coiled nematocyst mesoglea tentacle oral arms
Nervous System • Nerve cells, arranged in a nerve net. 17
Class Hydrozoa • Freshwater & marine. • Cnidocytes present only on epidermis. • Medusa (if present) with a muscular velum. • Mesoglea without ameboid cells. • Asexual reproduction by budding. • Sexual reproduction via gametes produced by epidermis & released into water. 18
Class Hydrozoa • • Hydra Obelia Gonionemus Physalia 19

Class Cubozoa • Medusa dominant & cuboid • Tentacles arise at four corners from blade-like pendalium. • All marine • Strong swimmers which prey primarily on fish • Stings of some may be fatal within minutes to humans. 35
Class Cubozoa Gonad Pedalium Tentacle 36
Class Cubozoa Chironex Sea Wasp 37
Class Anthozoa • Medusa stage absent • Solitary or colonial • Some produce protective skeletons • Gastrovascular cavity subdivided by at least 8 mesenteries • Cnidocytes on mesenteries • Mesoglea contains ameboid cells • All Marine 38
Class Anthozoa Sea Anemone 39
Class Anthrozoa Metridium Tentacles Mouth Pharynx Septum Gastrovascular cavity 40
Symbiosis 41
Sea Anenome Feeding 42
Class Anthozoa Corals • Protective skeleton of calcium carbonate • Polyp retracts when not feeding 43
Zooxanthellae • Photosynthetic dinoflagellates (brown) • Live in corals • Provide nutrients for coral by photosynthesis • Mutualism 44
Corals Colony of interconnected polyps 45
Class Anothozoa Meandrina Brain Coral 46
Class Anothozoa Gorgonia Sea Fan 47
Class Anothozoa Tubipora Pipe Organ Coral 48
Class Anothozoa Actinodiscus Mushroom Coral 49
Class Anothozoa Acropora Staghorn Coral 50
Coral Reefs • Formed over thousands of years from successive layers of coral skeleton deposits (calcium carbonate forms underwater mountains of coral animal skeletons) • The underwater equivalent of the amazon jungle- very high species diversity and biomass • Reefs contain sponges, colonial hydrozoans, anemones, many varieties of coral, fish, many types of worms we’ve not discussed, not to mention bryozoans, ctenophores, protists, bacteria, 51 etc. .
