Which Stinging cells are a characteristic of members of this phylum.?

the scientific phylum name is Cnidaria. this includes animals such as jellyfish, anemone, and coral. Some are medusa shaped (jellyfish) or polyp shaped (upside down jellyfish) All of them have nematocysts which is a scientific name for stinging cells. These invertebrates evolved from sponges. New characteristics include movement (sponges move but only at the larval stage) and tissues for the movement (muscle and nerve tissue). They also evolved from asymmetrical symmetry (sorry - redundant) to radial symmetry.
