A Cnidarian is a stinging animal such as a jellyfish or a sea anenome. They have stinging cells that they use predatorially for food. There are two body scructures for cnidarians--polyps and medusas. A polyp is attached to something and does not move, and its mouth is at the top. A medusa is free-swimming, and its mouth is on the bottom.
