Cnidarians (Jellyfish and relatives) have a body made of non-living mesoglea (which doesn't need oxygen) surrounded by 2, 1-cell thick, layers of epithelium, which obtain oxygen directly from the water.

What are two different strategies used by cnidarians to obtain food?

Cnidarians employ two primary strategies to obtain food: passive feeding and active predation. In passive feeding, they utilize their tentacles, equipped with specialized cells called cnidocytes, to capture plankton and small organisms that drift into their reach. In active predation, larger cnidarians, like jellyfish, actively pursue and ensnare prey using their tentacles to immobilize them with venom before bringing the food to their mouths. Both strategies highlight their adaptations for survival in diverse aquatic environments.
