Phylum Cnidaria (Coelenterata)
Phylum Coelenterata (also known as Cnidaria) consists of about 10,000 species of simple aquatic animals. The name “Coelenterata” refers to their single central body cavity (the coelenteron), while “Cnidaria” refers to their specialized stinging cells.
General characters
- Habitat: Primarily marine (e.g., corals, jellyfish), with a few freshwater forms like Hydra.
- Level of organization: Tissue grade of organization.
- Germ layers: Diploblastic — body wall made of two layers:
Pharmacology Drug Classes and Mechanisms Summary
NSAIDs: Pain Relief and Inflammation Reduction
NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) are a class of meds that reduce inflammation, pain, and fever. They’re like the ultimate pain relief squad.
Classification
- Non-selective COX inhibitors: Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Diclofenac, Naproxen
- COX-2 selective inhibitors: Celecoxib, Etoricoxib
Pharmacology of Aspirin
- Mechanism: Aspirin irreversibly inhibits COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, reducing prostaglandin synthesis, which leads to decreased pain, inflammation,
AI Threat Detection for Unknown and Large-Scale Attacks
Capabilities of AI for Unknown or Large-Scale Attacks
AI capabilities help networks detect attacks that evade traditional signature-based systems (unknown attacks) and handle the sheer volume of modern threats (scale) through the following mechanisms:
Behavioral Modeling
AI builds baseline (peacetime) models of every device, application, and service to understand normal behavior. This allows it to detect zero-day attacks (unknown threats) because they deviate from the established norm rather than relying

Module 1 – Introduction to IoT (ECT 458)
IoT: Global network of physical/virtual “things” with unique identities, exchanging data via interoperable protocols. Enables data sensing, collection, sharing, and intelligent actions with context awareness.
Characteristics
- Dynamic / Self-adapting — responds to context changes (e.g., day/night cameras).
- Self-configuring — automatic updates and network configuration.
- Interoperable protocols — supports multiple standards.
- Unique identity — IP, URI, or

The Cell Cycle
Purpose: Growth, repair, and reproduction of cells.
Stages:
Interphase – Cell grows, DNA replicates, organelles duplicate
- G1: Growth
- S: DNA synthesis
- G2: Prep for division
Mitosis (M phase) – Division of the nucleus
Cytokinesis – Division of cytoplasm; two daughter cells form
Mitosis
Purpose: To produce identical daughter cells for growth and repair.
Phases:
Prophase – Chromosomes condense, spindle fibers form, nuclear membrane breaks down
Metaphase – Chromosomes line up at the cell
Social Justice and Business Ethics Analysis
Angela Davis on Prison Abolition
Why Davis argues that we must reevaluate the punishment process: Davis does not believe the increase in prison populations is due to rising crime rates. Instead, she attributes it to the desire for profit and systemic racist ideas.
- Profit motive: Private businesses view prison labor as a “pot of gold.” It offers no strikes, no union organizing, and no benefits. Labor is paid extremely low wages, meaning more prisons lead to more cheap labor and higher profits.
- Falling
Motivation and Assessment Strategies for CLIL and EMI Classrooms
Session 11: Motivation in CLIL Contexts
Motivation — what is it?

Likewise, students are faced with the challenge of
