Fission is often irregular and can be stimulated by changes in the ambient conditions, such as abrupt changes in temperature or illumination. The process involves separation of small, irregularly shaped fragments from the edge of the disk of the sessile or the slowly moving sea anemone. Here sees the

Although they are flexible in the ways that they obtain their nutrition's, they are fundamentally predatory animals that use their venomous tentacles to catch prey. The dietary composition differentiates between the marine habitats that they are occupying. The mouth of the anemone can stretch as well
567:
The slit in the mouth leads to a flattened tube known as the actinopharynx which is seen to extend into the gastrovascular cavity. These two slit like structures run along the end of the mouth to ensure that the water circulates through the gastrovascular cavity for the end goal of re-pumping it out.

which is only seen in 57 species out of approximately 1100 within
Actiniaria. These superfamilies which are predominately found in the Southern Ocean and therefore brood externally as well as having a combination of morphological features including 12 mesenteries and an oral disc similar to glandular
794:
The sphincters at the base of their tentacles can separate due to contractions of the circular muscles. The opening in the basal part of the separated tentacle is closed by a ‘tissue plug’, which then falls off with the onset of active cell proliferation and subsequent formation of the body of a new

It is part of a highly diverse order that successfully occupies marine habitats across all depths of the ocean, ranging from the tidal zone to more than 33,000 feet. There are 3 superfamilies and up to 48 family's within, thus making it one of the largest suborders of the sea anemones long side the

The other cell type is ectodermal gland cells which is responsible for producing a distinct collections of toxins. These toxins can be released in greater quantities due to the larger capacity of the gland in comparison to the nematocytes, which allows for the opportunity for the reach of the venom

Within
Enthemonae, their marginal musculature has shown to be phylogenetically consistent revealing that on occasion these features have been lost several times over centuries. The enthemonae's feature of marginal musculature was lost in the Family Edwardsioidea and Family Actinoidea which stemmed

The simple body plan of actiniarians shows the high level of morphological convergence, where many of their morphological characteristics have been lost. This form of evolution which results in unrelated organisms independently producing similarities of form, usually because they become adapted to

The gastrovascular cavity is lined by gastrodermis cells and divided by radical septa known as mesenteries, into both lateral chambers and the central part. There are incomplete and complete mesenteries that are located in pairs; the complete mesenteries have their internal edge in the upper part

Basilar muscles are characteristic of all enthemonae's and are lost a number of times within each sublineage. Despite this it is implied that the endodermal and mesogleal marginal muscles represent independent and alternative derivations of marginal musculature in order to optimise the marginal

Anemones are solitary hexacoral polyps which in contrast to the majority of colonial forms have no skeleton. They are diploblastic animals, with a body that displays a wall consisting of 2 layers; the epidermis and the gastrodermis, separated by an extracellular mesoglea which contains many

Enthemonae is any member of the invertebrate suborder characterised by soft bodied, marine animals that look like flowers which primarily attach to hard or rigid surfaces, such as coral or rocks. An Enthemonae is a suborder of sea anemone of the order Actiniaria, which includes the overall
837:
The type of symbiotic relationship they develop is known as commensalism as the hermit crab is protected from predators from the venom inside the tentacles of the
Enthemonae. The anemone spreads its long thin tentacles over the crab as well as extending the venomous tentacles further out as an

will often develop a symbiotic relationship from a young stage. This involves the young hermit crab attaching the shell to the tentacles of the sea anemone, becoming partners for the duration of their life cycle. This process often results in the two organisms growing at roughly the same rate.

Nematocysts are the main venom delivery tissue which are capsules containing an inverted tubule capsule of extremely powerful discharge. They are present in all cnidarians and produce highly complex venom filled organelles. The most functional and common venom tissue within
Enthemonae include

The body is of a cylinder shape or a truncated cone shaped that contains the oral disk with a fringe of tentacles arranged in one to several configurations around the mouth opening. The basal body end in the majority of species extends into the pedal disk which serves with the purpose of an

The origin and the development of the germ cells in lower invertebrates originate from differentiated epithelial cells of the epidermis. This sees the simple reproductive system of sea anemones have no true gonads resulting in the accumulation of the sexual products at the mesenteries.

and therefore the exchanges between the two are based on a nutritional exchange of the algae's bi products of oxygen and glucose. Then in response the anemone provides the algae with a safe harbour as well as provides them with a greater exposure to sunlight used for photosynthesis.

is that they are primarily characterised by having basilar muscles, mesoglea marginal sphincter and they lack acontia and arotinoids. However, Enthemonae are seen to rarely lack these types of basilar muscles and sphincters causing the outer column to be smooth in texture.
773:
This occurs when fragments of the organism breaks off and develops into new individuals. Some stretch themselves along the base of the surface they are attached to and split across the middle resulting in two new enthemonae, this method is known as longitudinal fission.

The sex of the germ cells is not always easy to determine at the initial stages of the cell differentiation process. However, developing oocytes unlike male germ cells, the changes in their nuclei begin earlier, with neighbouring cells may significantly differ in size.

sphincter muscles on our trees. These arose as the mesogleal muscles, being transformed into an endodermal muscle in their lineage. This process has arisen around 3 times within the
Hexacorillia, and in each case resulted in the development of these mesogleal muscles.
636:
The venom that is found within these tissues are a complex combination of proteins, polypeptides and other non-protein based compounds. These components are grouped into 4 functional categories, in the ‘Cytolytic peptide and protein toxins from sea anemones’.
608:
Enthemonae produce venom dependent on the superfamily with vast molecular diversity which are classified according to pharmacological activity and amino acid sequence. However, the exact receptors they target are either unknown or incomplete.
185:
It is seen that within the suborder of
Enthemonae there are 46 families showing the large amount of diversity within the species. This diversity stems from the depth, heat and environment of the water they are growing in.
732:
is a simple and straightforward process involving the fertilisation of an egg which evolves into a planula further to a polyp then an adult, which results in full anemones being released from the mouth of the adult.

fragments after separation develop new tentacles on the closures of then wounds. As a result, new offspring created through binary fission have an abnormal number of tentacles and an irregular arrangement of septa.

Some Enthemonae also are considered to be opportunistic and omnivorous feeders that feed a large extent of their diet through organic detritus, which is caught with the acid of their mucus secretion.

In general, the venom of an Enthemonae are harmless to humans and in most cases only cause skin rashes and edema in the area of contact with the tentacles.
