Two characteristics of flatworms that make them different from cnidarians are that flatworms have a more advanced digestive system and they are flat so they can absorb oxygen faster. Cnidaria has their digestion in the gastrovascular cavity while flatworms have enzymes digest food outside of their bodies.
