Phylum Cnidaria
DEFINING CHARACTERISTIC OF CNIDARIA
Contain Stinging cellsDidermicSac Body PlanGastro-vascular Cavity
STINGING CELL
STINGING CELL
Specialized Cell is Cnidocyte that contain
stinging organelle Nematocyst.
Nematocyst – has barbed and poisonous thread. They produced toxin when discharged, they help in the capture of prey or for defense
WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN JELLYFISH STING YOUR SKIN?
1. REMAIN CALM! THERE ARE ONLY A FEW JELLY FISH WHOSE STING IS DEADLY OR POTENTIALLY DEADLY. PANICKING WOULD BE UNHELPFUL.
How to Soothe a Jellyfish Sting
2. Get out of the water! Jellyfish stings can be extremely painful and you could lose your ability to swim
3. Remove stingers by applying shaving foam to the sting area. Scrape the skin closely with a razor, knife blade, or credit card. If you don't have a plastic card, rub sand over it to dislodge the stingers and rinse it off in salt water
4. Deactivate the remaining stingers. In the case of a plain old jellyfish sting, blot or pour 3-10% percent acetic acid solution (white vinegar) on the sting with a clean cloth.
5. Remove any venom in the skin by applying a paste of baking soda and water and using a cloth covering. If possible, reapply paste every 15-20 minutes.
6. Take a very hot shower. A 15-20 minute hot shower can deactivate the venom of some jellyfish
7. Soothe any remaining skin irritations with over-the-counter antihistamine pills.
8. Get medical care if the victim is experiencing any symptoms worse than skin irritation or has trouble breathing.
10. Severe stings need to be wrapped after treatment to keep them from getting infected
DIDERMIC
Consist of 2 tissue layer
Epidermic Gastrodermis
SAC BODY PLAN
The mouth serve as an incurrent and excurrent opening
GASTROVASCULAR CAVITY
Play an important role in Digestion. Inner Cell
dependon water within the cavity
for gas exchange and excretion.
ANATOMY OF CNIDARIA
Tentacles – contain sting cell use in capturing prey
Oral arm – Hold the prey then pass out in the mouth
Mouth – serve for food entrance, metabolic waste exit and passageway of gametes.
Nerve Net – nerve cells interconnect to form a nerve net below the epidermis
Epidermis – outer covering of Cnidaria
Gonads – responsible for production of gametes
REPRODUCTION
The life cycle of Cnidaria include two phases:When there is an alteration of Generation Medusa – the sexual phase Polyp – asexual phase
Polyp – has mouth on the dorsal surface and tentacles that point upward
Medusa – has a mouth on the ventral surface and tentacles that point downward
LIFE CYCLE OF CNIDARIA
1. The adult male and female sea jellies releases gametes
2. Fertilization occur in the water. Zygote will form that eventually develop into a planula
3. The planula will eventually settle and attaches to a firm surface. The planula then develops into a polyp with a mouth and tentacles on its unattached end. The polyp will develop a stack of medusa that will bud off.
4. The polyp will bud off immature sea jelly or ephyra then it will develop into an adult sea jelly.
CLASSES OF CNIDARIA
•Scyphozoa•Anthozoa•Hydrozoa•Cubozoa
SCYPHOZOA
Cnidaria with dominant medusae
Aurelia auritaCyanea capillata
CUBOZOA
The medusae is in cuboidal shape with tentacles that hang from each corner of bell
Chironex flexeri Chiropsalmus quadrumanus
STAUROZOA
Goblet-shaped, sessile, attached by oral stalk to sea weeds
Halyclystus auricula
HYDROZOA
Cnidaria with polyp dominant
One of the few fresh water cnidaria
They are also found in attached to underwater plant or rocks, mostly in lakes and ponds.
Hydra Obelia
ANTHOZOA
Stony coral, with no medusae have a calcium carbonate exoskeleton that contribute greatly building of coral reef.
Fungia Corallium
IMPORTANCE OF CNIDARIA
THEY PROVIDE HABITAT FOR MANY MARINE ORGANISM
THE REEF DECREASES THE FORCE OF THE INCOMING WAVES, RESULTING IN PEACERFUL WATER AT THE SHORE
SEA CORALS ARE GOOD INDICATOR OF ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES. SEA CORALS ARE VERY SENSITIVE TO SUCH FACTOR AS WATER POLLUTION
