Hydra Model
This greatly magnified, detailed model focuses on the simple anatomy and histology of the Hydra, a representative freshwater organism from the phylum Cnidaria. The model typically presents a longitudinal cross-section to clearly illustrate the two primary tissue layers (ectoderm and endoderm), separated by the mesoglea. It highlights specialized structures like tentacles, cnidocytes (stinging cells), the gastrovascular cavity, and budding formation. This model is essential for invertebrate zoology and developmental biology, providing a clear visual aid for understanding basic diploblastic body plans and asexual reproduction.
