The larvae also feed this way, although they are not sessile and are free swimming.

A sponge can pass up to 20 000 times its own volume in water through its body in 24 hours. See link below for more information. ther usually filter feed
What materials make up a sponge?
A sponge is typically made up of small, porous holes called "ostia" which are surrounded by a network of cells known as "choanocytes." These cells help to filter and move water through the sponge's body, enabling it to feed and respire. Sponges also contain a protein called "spongin" which gives them their flexible and soft texture.
