Phylum Cnidaria, formerly known as Coelenterata, includes animals like jellyfish, sea anemones, and coral. They have radial symmetry, stinging cells called nematocysts for defense and prey capture, and a simple nerve net instead of a centralized brain. Many species have a polyp and medusa body form during their life cycle.
