    cells that may function in defense and capture prey. The cells found within the tentacles are structurally and functionally unique to each phylum‚ such as the cindocytes in Cnidarians and colloblasts in Ctenophores. Cnidarians capture prey with special stinging cells called cindocytes. These cells are found throughout the epidermis but are particularly abundant in the tentacles. Cnidocytes contain a cilium or modified cilium structure with a kinetosome at its base. This structure is known as the
