Summary Introduction
To explain: The reason why biologists label Cnidarians and Ctenophores as triploblastic that are considered as diploblastic.
Introduction: Cnidarians are a phylum of simple animals. It includes jellyfish, hydras, corals, and sea anemones. Cnidarians are divided into major classes namely Scyphozoa, Anthozoa, Staurozoa, and Hydrozoa.
