An example of phylum Ctenophora is the comb jelly, also known as the sea gooseberry. Ctenophores are gelatinous, transparent marine organisms that possess rainbow-like iridescent bands of cilia that they use for locomotion. They are found in oceans worldwide.
Some common names are: sea gooseberries, venus girdle, venus belt, sea mitres, swimming eyes of cat, comb jellys or sea wallnuts (yes this spelled this way).
The answer is Phylum Ctenophora.
An insect is an example of an animal that belongs to the phylum Arthropoda.
The phylum of bell or umbrella-shaped animals is Cnidaria. These animals have radial symmetry and specialized stinging cells called cnidocytes, which they use for capturing prey and defense. Examples of animals in this phylum include jellyfish, corals, and sea anemones.
The phylum level is a taxonomic rank that groups organisms based on shared characteristics. One example of a phylum is Chordata, which includes organisms such as mammals, birds, reptiles, and fish. Another example is Arthropoda, which includes insects, spiders, and crustaceans.
The ribbon worm is an example of a species in the phylum Nemertea. These worms are known for their long, ribbon-like bodies and are found in marine environments worldwide.
The answer is Phylum Ctenophora.
Ctenophores are known for their ability to disrupt marine ecosystems by consuming large amounts of zooplankton, leading to imbalances in food webs. Additionally, some species of ctenophores have been introduced to new habitats through ballast water discharge, where they can outcompete native species and disrupt local ecosystems.
Due to their similarities, it was originally considered that both comb jellies and cnidarians went in the Phylum Coelenterata. However, these days, comb jellies are considered as Phylum Ctenophora and cnidarians as a separate phylum Phylum Cnidaria. Cnidaria includes box jellies, jellyfish, hydra, sea anemones and corals.
Mertensia ovum is not in any class of vertebrate, it is a comb jelly in the phylum Ctenophora.

Ctenophora elegans was created in 1818.
Invertebrates have nucleated cells and are thus eukaryotes (Domain Eukarya in the Empire of Life). They are multicellular and heterotrophic and thus animalian (Kingdom Animalia). Edward O. Wilson is what one calls a 'splitter' in taxonomy and has split the animal kingdom into about 85 phyla. Most other taxonomists think there are somewhere in the thirties in the realm of 'How many phyla are there ?' Some invertebrate animal phyla are: Phylum Porifera, Phylum Cnidaria, Phylum Ctenophora, Phylum Platyhelminthes, Phylum Annelida, Phylum Mollusca, Phylum Arthropoda, Phylum Echinodermata, Phylum Hemichordata, Phylum Nematoda, Phylum Rotifera, Phylum Kinorhyncha, Phylum Nemertea, Phylum Bryozoa
The phylum of bell or umbrella-shaped animals is Cnidaria. These animals have radial symmetry and specialized stinging cells called cnidocytes, which they use for capturing prey and defense. Examples of animals in this phylum include jellyfish, corals, and sea anemones.
Three types of animals that belong in the phylum Chordata are mammals (e.g., humans, dogs), birds (e.g., eagles, robins), and fish (e.g., salmon, goldfish).
Comb jellies are somewhat different from true jellies (cnidarians). They lack stinging nematocysts and have developed other strategies to feed and protect themselves. Some of these include oral lobes to capture prey and sticky tentacles.

Some examples of phylum Deuteromycota include Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Candida. These fungi are commonly known for their role in food spoilage and as opportunistic pathogens in humans.
