Cnidarians (e.g., Hydra, Jellyfish) have radial symmetry, a medusa or polyp body form, two cell layers with a digestive cavity, and stinging cells called cnidocytes.

Cnidarians, like Hydra and Jellyfish, exhibit radial symmetry, have a polyp or medusa motile body, two cell layers with a gastrovascular cavity, and possess stinging cnidocytes containing nematocysts.
