It's the jelly-like substance that is found between the two layers of cells in a cnidarian. The mesogea is not in all cnidarians though
No, an octopus would be an example of a mollusk (not a cnidarian).
Cnidarian do have muscles
Polyp
it carries blood
the mouth opens to the stomach
The body wall of a cnidarian consists of three layers, an outer layer known as the epidermis, a middle layer called the mesoglea, and an inner layer referred to as the gastrodermis.

The "jelly layer" of jellyfish (and other cnidarians) is called the "mesoglea." The mesoglea is a gelatinous, mostly acellular layer composed of fibrous proteins, such as collagen. The mesoglea often have some muscle fiber bundles and nerves to maintain the mesoglea's form, as well as some amoebocyte cells to consume debris and invading pathogens. The mesoglea serves as an internal skeleton to help the cnidarian retain its form after it relaxes from contracting.
Yes, coral is a cnidarian.
On the field trip, I saw a "cnidarian"when we went on a submarine.**************************A jellyfish is a basic example of a cnidarian.

respiratory system is a cnidarian
No- they do not belong to the phylum Cnidarian. They belong to Molluska.
A jelly fish. Cnidarian's have a sting cell called a cnidnocyte which is the defining feature.
No it is not. :)
mesoglea ;)
