Cnidarians

Star Encrusting Sponge
They live in warm waters in the caribbean sea and the mediterranean sea. When the jelly fish reaches muturity its cells convert and it becomes a polp. They eat planton,fish eggs, and small molusks. And they are a very rare species.
Radial symetry
Imortal Jellyfish
Flatworm
They are found in ponds, lakes, swamps, ditches, ocean, and temporary puddles under rocks and debris. Scientist can train flatworms to do simple tasks. Flatworms in captivity live from 65-140 days. If a flatworms starves it is capable of shrinking to hatching size.
Bilateral symetry
Nematode
Mollusks
Arthropods
Roundworm
They lve in oceans, fresh water, and in moist terrestrial habbitats. They can grow up to be 20in long. Can be found in feces. Roundworms are one of the most common type of intestinal parasites in the world.
Bilateral symetry
Giant Clam
Found in shallow coastal areas and deepest parts of the ocean in sediment. Most dangerous clam species. Eat alge. Giant clams have sperm and eggs but need another clam to fertilize the eggs.
Bilateral symetry
Horseshoe Crab

Bilateral symetry
Annelids
Echinoderms
Segmented Worm
Starfish
Some live in marine enviroments others in fresh water, and in moist terrestrial enviroments. Each segment contains a complete set of organs. Their body is filled with fluid which gives its shape. Many species of the segmented worm reproduce asexualy.
Bilateral symetry
They live in the ocean and are found at every depth.They are protected by a material on the inside of them like built in armour. Starfish do have eyes. And they move with their tube feet.
