Vertebrates digest food in digestive tracts. cnidarians accomplish the same function using?
Cnidarians accomplish digestion using a gastrovascular cavity, which serves both digestive and circulatory functions. Food is taken in through a single opening, where it is digested extracellularly, and the nutrients are then absorbed by the surrounding cells. This simple body plan allows cnidarians, such as jellyfish and sea anemones, to efficiently process their food without a complex digestive system.
