Beroidae
Beroidae is a family of ctenophores or comb jellies more commonly referred to as the beroids.
Cnidaria
Cnidaria is a phylum under kingdom Animalia containing over 11,000 species of aquatic animals found both in fresh water and marine environments (predominantly the latter), including jellyfish, hydroids, sea anemones, corals and some of the smallest marine parasites.
Cnidocyte
A cnidocyte (also known as a cnidoblast) is an explosive cell containing one large secretory organelle called a cnidocyst (also known as a cnida (cnidae)) that can deliver a sting to other organisms. Colloblast and cnidocyte are animal cells.
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols (formerly CSH Protocols) is an online scientific journal and methods database for biologists, published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press.
See Colloblast and Cold Spring Harbor Protocols
Ctenophora
Ctenophora (ctenophore) comprise a phylum of marine invertebrates, commonly known as comb jellies, that inhabit sea waters worldwide.
Eosinophilic
Eosinophilic (Greek suffix -phil-, meaning loves eosin) is the staining of tissues, cells, or organelles after they have been washed with eosin, a dye. Colloblast and Eosinophilic are Histology.
See Colloblast and Eosinophilic
Haeckelia
Haeckelia is a genus of ctenophores belonging to the family Cydippida.
Predation
Predation is a biological interaction where one organism, the predator, kills and eats another organism, its prey.
Tentacle
In zoology, a tentacle is a flexible, mobile, and elongated organ present in some species of animals, most of them invertebrates.
