Do cnidarians have spicules?
No, cnidarians do not have spicules. Spicules are small, needle-like structures made of calcium carbonate or silica that are found in some sponges and echinoderms for support and defense. Cnidarians, such as jellyfish and corals, have a different type of support structure called a mesoglea.
Infer how spongin and spicules discourage predators from eating sponges?
Spongin is a tough, fibrous protein that provides structural support to sponges, making them difficult to consume. Spicules are tiny, needle-like structures made of calcium carbonate or silica that can be sharp and harmful if ingested by predators. Together, these structures make sponges unpalatable and unattractive to most predators.
What contain spicules and prominences?
