What is a stinging cell cnidarian called?
A cnidocyte, cnidoblast, or nematocyte is a type of venomous cell unique to the phylum Cnidaria (corals, sea anemones, hydrae, jellyfish, etc.). The cnidocyte cell provides a means for them to catch prey and defend themselves from predators. A cnidocyte fires a structure that contains the toxin, from a characteristic sub-cellular organelle called a cnidocyst (also known as a cnida or nematocyst). This is responsible for the stings delivered by jellyfish.
What are nematocycts?
s a type of venomous cell unique to the phylum Cnidaria (corals, sea anemones, hydrae, jellyfish, etc.). The cnidocyte cell provides a means for them to catch prey and defend themselves from predators. Despite being morphologically simple lacking a skeleton and usually being sessile, cnidarians prey on fish and crustaceans.

What exactly does a jellyfish do to sting somebody?
Cnidocytes (stingin cells), located mostly along jellyfish tentacles, are activated only if their cnidocilium(a structure of the cnidocytes) touches and recognizes some specific organic compounds; in this way, they don't sting themselves, other jellyfish of the same species and other similar species, while can recognize and sting preys and predators even when the tentacle is no longer attached to the jellyfish body; however, is possible that nervous system, in some cases, can choose indipendently if to sting or not.When activated, pressure inside the cnidocyte builds and it bursts open. A barbed lance springs out, which pierces the victim's skin. Then venom inside the cnidocyte flows through the lance into the victim. The venom's potency depends on the species: some species of jellyfish do not have a sting noticeable to humans while others can be lethal. A jellyfish sting is caused by thousands of cnidocytes.There is a video of a cnidocyte in action at http://www.jellyfishart.com/kb_results.asp?ID=11
