There are a variety of methods but capturing plankton out of the water that passes them by (or they swim through) is the most common. Some jellyfish also sting and poison they prey with tentacles and nematocysts. Others have symbiotic plants that feed them.

How are flatworms different from coelenterates?

Flatworms (Platyhelminthes) and coelenterates (Cnidaria) differ in several key aspects. Flatworms are bilaterally symmetrical, have a flattened body structure, and lack a true body cavity (coelom), while coelenterates exhibit radial symmetry and possess a simple body plan with a central gastrovascular cavity. Additionally, flatworms have a more complex organ system, including a nervous system and excretory structures, whereas coelenterates are primarily characterized by their specialized stinging cells (cnidocytes) for capturing prey. These fundamental differences reflect their distinct evolutionary adaptations and ecological roles.
