In many cnidarians, such as jellyfish and sea anemones, the food captured by their tentacles is transported to the mouth and then into the gastrovascular cavity. This cavity serves both digestive and circulatory functions, allowing nutrients to be distributed throughout the organism's body. Specialized cells in the gastrodermis help in the digestion and absorption of the food. Ultimately, undigested remains are expelled back through the mouth.
