That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The correct answer is "Jellyfish". Sea anemones are marine invertebrates that belong to the class Anthozoa, which is part of the phylum Cnidaria. This class also includes corals, but jellyfish are more closely related to them within the broader classification. Both sea anemones and jellyfish share similar characteristics, such as stinging cells called cnidocytes, which they use for defense and capturing prey.
