What is the cell some animals only have?
Some animals, particularly certain types of sponges and jellyfish, primarily have specialized cells rather than true tissues or organs. For example, sponges possess unique cells called choanocytes, which help in feeding and water flow. Jellyfish have cnidocytes, specialized cells that contain stinging structures used for capturing prey. These specialized cells allow these animals to perform essential functions despite their simple body structures.
What part of the hydra contains the stinging cells?
The stinging cells in a hydra are located in the tentacles, which are cylindrical, tube-like structures surrounding the mouth of the organism. These stinging cells, called cnidocytes, contain nematocysts that can inject toxins into prey or threats.
Are sponges prokaryotes or eukaryotes?
Sponges are Eukaryotic. They are multicellular, and their cells contain membrane-bound organelles.
How long does it take for a stinging cells animal to replace its cells once it is used and discarded?
The process of replacing stinging cells in animals, such as jellyfish or sea anemones, can vary depending on the species and the individual animal's health. In general, it can take a few days to several weeks for these animals to replenish their stinging cells after they have been used and discarded. However, some species have continuous regeneration, allowing them to replace their stinging cells more rapidly.
Do sponges have specialized cells?
it has no muscles thats how it can function
What are the sponges' structures of defense?
Stinging cells
Where Are the Stinging Cells of a Jellyfish Located?
The stinging cells in a jellyfish are located in it's tentacles.
What is the difference between tentacles and stinging cells?
Stinging cells are cells that "sting" and pour toxins into the bloodstream, and tentacles are long appendages that have no relation whatsoever to stinging cells.
Are sponges unicellular?
If you're talking about kitchen sponges, they do not have cells. However, sea sponges have cells.
Stinging cells are in what phylum?
Usually stinging cells belong to the phylum Cnidaria
What specialized cells do use for protection?

What is stinging cells of the hydra?
The stinging cells in the hydra is what helps it paralyze its prey. Once it uses its stinging cells to paralyze it, the hydra then uses its tentacles to push into itsslef considering that its only one cell layer thin.

What specialized cells do cnidarian use for protection?
Stinging Cells
Which Stinging cells are a characteristic of members of this phylum.?
the scientific phylum name is Cnidaria. this includes animals such as jellyfish, anemone, and coral. Some are medusa shaped (jellyfish) or polyp shaped (upside down jellyfish) All of them have nematocysts which is a scientific name for stinging cells. These invertebrates evolved from sponges. New characteristics include movement (sponges move but only at the larval stage) and tissues for the movement (muscle and nerve tissue). They also evolved from asymmetrical symmetry (sorry - redundant) to radial symmetry.
