How are cnidarians more advanced then jellyfish?

Sponges are less complex because they are just made of individual cells. There is no level of organization past cells in sponges. Cnidarians, on the other hand, have tissues, a higher level of organization. Tissues allow for some forms, like box jelly fish, to have eyes (this is just one of many advantages of tissues). Cnidarians' level of organization stops there though, they have no organs (heart, brain, etc.).


What adaptations do phylum porifera have that are unique?

Do cnidarians have a nervous system, and if so, how does it function in comparison to other organisms?

Yes, cnidarians have a simple nervous system called a nerve net. This nerve net is decentralized and lacks a central brain, unlike more complex organisms. Instead, the nerve net allows for basic responses to stimuli, such as movement and feeding, without the need for a centralized control system.

Do phylum porifera have organs and true tissues?

No, phylum Porifera, which includes sponges, do not have true tissues or organs. Instead, they are composed of a simple aggregation of cells, with a porous structure that allows water to flow through. Their cells perform various functions, but they lack the complex organization found in more advanced animal phyla. Instead, they rely on the movement of water for feeding, respiration, and waste removal.
