Body Symmetry Chika • Radial Symmetry • Radiate from center • Any plane will cut into mirror images http://estb.msn.com/i/28/CE6ED47A2567BD0E2F316AE1291B4.jpg
Michelle Nervous System • Non-centralized nerve net that coordinates movement • No brain http://www.biology-blog.com/images/blogs/11-2007/new-species-of-sea-anemone.jpg
Makana Circulatory System • None :[ http://lesleehorner.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/jellyfish2.jpg
Digestive System Chika • Pushes food into cavity using tentacles • Use of cnidocytes and nematocyst • Food comes through mouth/anus • No real, developed digestive system http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://blog.hotelclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/jellyfish2.jpg&imgrefurl=http://blog.hotelclub.com/the-incredible-jellyfish-lake/&usg=__BKagMTz8g47-VG4SX8EDFaL9uoI=&h=300&w=400&sz=47&hl=en&start=145&um=1&itbs=1&tbnid=UmZgcZhcKfWCvM:&tbnh=93&tbnw=124&prev=/images%3Fq%3Djellyfish%26start%3D144%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26rlz%3D1R2SNNT_enUS364%26ndsp%3D18%26tbs%3Disch:1
Excretory System Michelle • No real, developed excretory system • Undigested remains are pushed out through mouth/anus http://www.psychobeing.co.uk/doblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/MakingJellyfishBabies1.jpg
Makana Locomotion/Musculature • Polyps are stationary • Medusae move by passive drifting and contractions of its bell-shaped body • Cubozoans actively pursue their prey http://img.brothersoft.com/screenshots/softimage/c/coral_clock_3d_screensaver-45155-1228962634.jpeg
Chika Skeletal Type • No bones • The Gastrovascular Cavity acts as a hydrostatic skeleton • When the volume of the cavity is filled, it can change shape http://www.aquadirectory.us/wp-content/uploads/Glow%20Coral%20Fish.jpg
Sensory Structures/Features Makana • Simple contractile tissues that can detect and respond to stimuli equally from all directions • Some Cubozoans have complex eyes embedded in their medusa http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v440/n7082/images/440280a-i1.0.jpg
Hydrozoan Reproduction Asexual Favorable environmental conditions Budding and Pinching off Sexual Deteriorating environmental conditions Resistant zygotes that remain dormant Michelle http://www.biology.uco.edu/PersonalPages/CButler/BIO1404/slides/Slide_37_Obelia_(wm).jpg

Unique Features Chika • Sea Wasps • One contains enough poison to kill 60 people http://www.zmescience.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/sea-wasp.jpg
Ctenophora Also known as Comb Jellies 8 “combs” of cilia that propel it through the water To catch prey: If prey touches one of the two tentacles, specialized cells burst open Covers the prey with a sticky mass Makana http://people.bu.edu/jrf3/BI547/IMAGE_CTENOPHORA_Mnemiopsis.jpg
