Does anyone know the difference between a Medusa and a Polyp?
- As I understand it, a polyp is the form that attaches to a surface, while a medusa is the form that is free-floating; a given species of cnidarian takes each form in a different phase of its life. See Cnidaria#Body (toward the end of the section) for a short explanation.--ragesoss 03:50, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
