There are two cnidarian body shapes, the bell-shaped Medusa, whose tentacles face downward and the vase-shaped polyp, whose tentacles face upward. Cnidarians have stinging cells in their tentacles known as cnidocytes. These cells include a trigger that releases a toxin-coated stinger that paralyzes any organism that has come into contact with is. Examples of a medusa include the common jellyfish, and examples of a polyp include corals and sea anemones.
