Animals in the class Hydrozoa include various species of hydroids, hydras, and Portuguese man o' war. They are mostly marine invertebrates that display a wide range of forms and lifestyles, often existing as colonial organisms with polyps and medusae.
An example of an invertebrate with a hard shell is a lobster. Lobsters are crustaceans that have a tough exoskeleton made of chitin, which helps protect their soft bodies.
If a cnidarian lost its stinging cells, it would lose its primary defense mechanism against predators and its ability to capture prey. This would make the cnidarian more vulnerable to predation and reduce its efficiency in obtaining food.
Cnidarians have specialized stinging cells called cnidocytes, which contain nematocysts. Nematocysts are capsule-like structures that can discharge venomous barbs or threads when triggered, allowing cnidarians to capture prey or defend themselves.
A springtail is a small, wingless insect that typically measures 1-4 mm in length. They are usually dark brown or black in color and have a unique ability to jump using a forked structure located underneath their abdomen. Springtails are commonly found in damp environments like soil, leaf litter, and decaying matter.
The black and blue hairy flower wasp (Scolia soror) and the great black wasp (Sphex pensylvanicus) are bugs that have black bodies and black-blue wings. The steel-blue aphid- and cricket-hunting wasp (Chlorion gerarium) gives black-and-blue impressions that cautiously closer inspection proves to be more black of wings and blue of body. The three insects will be found respectively in Australia (case 1) and North America (examples 2, 3).
The stinging cells of cnidarians, called cnidocytes, are located on specialized structures called nematocysts. These nematocysts are found on the tentacles of cnidarians and are used for defense and capturing prey.
Yes, coral is an invertebrate. It is a marine animal that belongs to the phylum Cnidaria and typically forms colonies known as coral reefs.
Examples of cnidarians include jellyfish, corals, sea anemones, and hydroids. Cnidarians are characterized by their radial symmetry and specialized stinging cells called cnidocytes that they use to capture prey.
No, not all bugs are considered insects. Insects are a specific group of bugs that have six legs and three body segments (head, thorax, abdomen). Bugs is a broader term that includes insects as well as other small creatures like spiders and centipedes.
The scientific name for a sea pig is Scotoplanes. Sea pigs are deep-sea sea cucumbers found in various ocean basins around the world. They are known for their unique appearance and feeding habits.
The scientific name for sea anemone is Actiniaria.
No, they're carnivores, & they eat nothing but blood their whole lives. Hope this helps.=Dominique, an 11-year old girl=
These are mostly animals with a very different digestion than other animals. They are mostly more simple organisms like snails, worms, a lot of sea-creatures etc.
Crocodiles.
No. Yabbies are omnivourous scavengers. They are opportunistic feeders and eat whatever they can find be it dead or alive. Insect larvae/fish other smaller crustacea, rotting plants, fruits etc can all be eaten by Yabbies.
Worm of some kind. There are ringworms, roundworms and flatworms, though I think you're looking for a ringworm as those are mostly visible with the naked eye.
Macro-invertebrates are animals that are big enough to see with the naked eye, and that do not have a backbone.
