No, cnidarians are not protostomes or deuterostomes. They fall under (the unranked taxonomic level) Radiata, while both superphylum Deuterostomia and Protostomia are under the (unranked taxonomic level) Bilateria. Features of Bilateria include bilateral symmetry (at some point) and three distinctive germ layers, while Radiata only has two.

What features define the group Lophotrochozoa?
Protostomes
Symmetry of cnidarians?
Cnidarians have a radial symmetry.
Why are crayfish classified as protostomes?
They have remote nipples, that are used for warmth.
Are cnidarians arthropods?
Cnidarians and Sponges are invertebrates
Are the phylums Ctenophora or Platyhelminthes protostome or deuterostonme?
"They are neither. This is because they do not have a true gut. Protostomes are annelidids(earthworms) Mollusca(clams, snails, octopus, etc.) and arthropods which are your insects or spiders. The only Deuterostomes are Phlya Chordota and Echinodermata." The above answer is incorrect. Plathyhelminthes are protostomes. There are many, MANY groups of protostomes besides annelids, molluscs, and arthropods.
Are cnidarians protostomes or deuterostomes?
Although most of the animal phyla are included in the deuterostomes and protostomes, cnidaria, porifera, placozoa and ctenophora are not included in the group of animals know as Bilateria (which contains the deuterostomes and protostomes). Cnidarians and ctenophores are in a group called Radiata, and Porifera and Placozoa are in the group known as Parazoa.
Are flatworms prokaryote or eukaryote?
They are protostomes.
Are bivalves protostomes or deuterostomes?
protostomes
Are worms protostomes?
Most invertebrate animals are protostomes.
Are leeches protostomes?
Yes, since they are annelids, they are protostomes.
Are Mollusks segmented worms and arthropods Protostomes?
Yes, molluscs fit into the group known as protostomes.
Are Chordates and echinoderms are both protostomes?
Neither are protostomes. Chordates, Hemichordates, and Echinoderms are all deuterostomes (in that the blastopore forms the anus first). In protostomes, the blastopore forms the mouth first.
Are mammalia deuterostomes?
Deuterostomes. All chordates such as birds and mammals are deuterosomes.
What features define the group Lophotrochozoa?
Protostomes
Are bivalves protosomes or deuterostomes?
Protostomes .
What is the animal if the blastopore develops into a mouth?
protostomes:)
What are two types of cnidarians that are formed by colonies?
small cnidarians and big cnidarians
