Meaning of "nematocalyces" in English

The term "nematocalyces" refers to specialized structures found in some marine invertebrates, particularly in the phylum Cnidaria, which includes organisms such as jellyfish, corals, and sea anemones. These structures are associated with cnidocytes, the cells that contain nematocysts, which are used for defense and prey capture. Nematocalyces are responsible for housing these stinging cells and are essential for the organism's survival and interaction with their environment. They play a critical role in both protection from predators and the acquisition of food.

Meaning of "nematocalyces" in French

In French, "nematocalyces" also pertains to the specialized anatomical structures found in certain marine invertebrates, mainly within the phylum Cnidaria, such as jellyfish, corals, and sea anemones. These structures are linked to the cnidocytes, which are the cells responsible for the stinging mechanism utilising nematocysts. Nematocalyces serve the purpose of housing these cells, crucial for both defensive and predatory actions. They ensure the protection of the organism against potential threats and aid in their method of capturing prey.
