What accurately describes reproduction in cnidarian species which do not have a medusa form?Multiple choice question.The polyp form produces gametes, but instead of becoming planula larvae, the fertilized eggs directly. settle as polypsThe polyp form only reproduces asexually producing new polyps.The polyp form produces gametes and the resulting planula develops directly into a polyp.

What cnidarian form is characterized by a cylindrical body with a mouth surrounded by tentacles at the end of the cylinder opposite where it is attached to substrate or colonial tissue?Multiple choice question.MedusaPolypPlanula

In certain cnidarian life cycles where both body forms exist, how are medusae produced?Multiple choice question.Asexually, from polypsFrom eggs and sperm, through fertilizationFrom larvae, through metamorphosisAsexually, from other medusae

How are colonies formed in cnidarians?Multiple choice question.A polyp produces medusae asexually, but instead of dispersing, they settle next to each other, forming a colony.Several planula larvae settle together and remain attached to each other, forming a colony.A polyp produces new polyps asexually and they all remain attached to one another, forming a colony.
