Cnidaria is a phylum whose organisms are: radial in symmetry, may have cnidocytes (stinging cells), Diploblastic tissues, no coelomic cavity, two basic types of individuals: polyps (sessile - no capable of moving) and medusas (free floating). Three classes are found in Cnidaria: Hydrazoa, Scyphozoa (ex. Jellyfish), and Anthozoa (ex. corals)
