A nematocyst is a specialized stinging cell found in the tentacles of cnidarians like jellyfish and sea anemones. When triggered by a physical contact or a chemical stimulus, the nematocyst releases a coiled thread that can inject venom into the prey or predator. This helps the cnidarian defend itself or capture prey.
