A hydra has two body shapes. The first one is known as polyp which has tentacles and the other body form is known as medusa.
A hydra is an invertebrate animal.
Hydras most commonly reproduce by budding in which as small juvenile, "polyp", grows on the stalk of it's body. When the polyp has matured, (or when the parent hydra dies), it will break off as a free swimming juvenile. In rare occasions, hydra reproduce sexually.
Some examples of cnidarians include jellyfish, sea anemones, corals, and hydra. These organisms are characterized by their radial symmetry, tentacles with stinging cells called cnidocytes, and a simple body structure with a central gastrovascular cavity.
Penguins, like all vertebrates, have bilateral symmetry. This means they have symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side.
Many think that the limpet has radial symmetry but this is not the case. Limpets have bilateral symmetry. Bilateral symmetry means the animal has symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side. See the related link below for more information.
Hydra are symmetrical radially from the top
The hydra has radial symmetry. The hydra belongs to the phylum Cnidaria and many immobile species in this phylum exhibit radial symmetry. Some marine animals that have bilateral symmetry are fish, sea turtles, and marine mammals.
They both have radial symmetry and they both have tentacle like thingys
yes, it is like a hydra from the cnidarian family.
A hydra is an invertebrate animal.
name one anatomical feature (other than symmetry) that distinguishes a planarian from a hydra.
Hydra is in the phylum of the cnidarians which is a radical symmetry. so ectoderm, the outer layr which form the nerve sytem. Also, the endoderm, the inner layer are presented in the hydra.
well i guess it would be radial but im not sure we just learned this
Cnidaria (Hydra, jellyfish, sea anemones, corals, etc.), generally have radial symmetry, although not all sea anemones or corals do. Echinodermata.
How can you identify the body symmetry of an animal
Flatworms are considered more complex than hydra due to their advanced body organization and internal systems. They possess a bilateral symmetry, which allows for a more defined head and tail region, and exhibit a more developed nervous system with a centralized brain. Additionally, flatworms have a three-layered body structure (triploblastic) and specialized organs for digestion and excretion, whereas hydra are simpler, radially symmetrical organisms with a two-layered body structure (diploblastic) and a less complex nervous system. This increased complexity in flatworms reflects their evolutionary advancement over hydra.
