Cnidariology is the scientific study of cnidarians, a diverse group of aquatic animals that includes jellyfish, corals, sea anemones, and hydras. Cnidarians are characterized by the presence of specialized cells called cnidocytes, which contain stinging structures known as nematocysts. These cells are primarily used for defense and capturing prey. Cnidariology encompasses various aspects of the biology, ecology, evolution, and behavior of these organisms.
