How do polyp and medusae in coelenterates alternate with each other?
Polyp is a asexual form which has a cylindrical body just like hydra whereas the medusa form is sexual form and has an umbrella shape. In case of Aurelia, the adult is sexual form. Males and females are separate and after copulation the female releases eggs which develop into a hydra like structure called ephyra larva which is called polyp form. This larva by budding produces umbrella shaped medusa forms. Thus the asexual polyp form alters with the sexual medusa form. This alternation of generations is called metagenesis.

What is the relationship between a stationary polyp and free swimming medusa?
Some cnidarians have a life cyce wih an alternation of generations between asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction; while asexual reproduction provides a large increasing of (identical) individuals, sexual reproduction mantain a genetic pool variety.The generation supposed to reproduce asexually is polypoid; the generation supposed to reproduce sexually is medusoid.Tipically, medusae produce male and female gametes, which fuse together making zygotes; a zygote becames an egg from which hatches a free swimming larva called planula; the planula reaches the sea floor and developes into a polyp; the polyp then becames a strobila (segmented polyp), wich reproduces asexually by strobilation, segmenting itself and producing many ephyras, which can be released one at a time or all together at the same time; each ephyra maturates into an adult medusa, reaching the reproductive maturity.
