nutrition
sessile

beth kr khatay hain yeh

25
obelia has three types of zooids
26
alternation of generation is present in
obelia
27
examples
jelly fish( aurelia) , sea anemone( actinia), hydra, obelia, physalia, corals( madrepora), vellela
28
aurelia
jelly fish medusae are dominant and polyp are reduced
29
actinia
sea anemone sessile only polyps gastrovascular cavity divided into large partitions by septum called MESENTERIES | enteron - cavity
30
madrepora
corals exoskeleton CaCO3 form small coral islands and large coral reefs rock gardens, aquaria, jewllery
31
hydra reproduces asexualy through
budding
32
repro of obelia
blastocyle(sessile)- asexual repro- medusae(motile)- sexual repro- gametes- join to form colonies
33
zooids present in obelia
nutritive- gastrozoids asexual repro- gonozoids and blastocyle sexual- medusae
