Final answer:

Clownfish and cnidarians have a unique relationship that enables the clownfish to live among sea anemones safely despite the stinging cells present in cnidarians.


Explanation:

Clownfish can resist the stings of cnidarians due to a mutualistic relationship with sea anemones where they live among them for protection. The sea anemones' tentacles that sting other fish do not harm the clownfish, allowing them to coexist peacefully.
