The body of a sponge is covered in tiny openings called pores. These pores allow water to flow in and out of the sponge, which helps the sponge filter out food particles and oxygen from the surrounding water.

What kinds of tissues does sea sponge have?

The body of a sponge is a collection of a few different types of cells loosely arranged in a gelatinous matrix called a 'mesohyl', mesoglea or mesenchyme. This mesohyl is the connective tissue of a sponge body and it is supported by the skeletal elements. The skeletal elements of sponges are variable and important in taxonomy. Throughout this body run canals through which water flows, there is considerable variation in the complexity of these canals. The canals have openings to the outside which are called pores, where the water enters the sponge system these pores are usually small and are called 'ostia' and where the water leaves the sponge system the pores are larger, often singular and are called 'oscula' (singular osculum). Many if not most of these canals are lined with special flagellated cells called 'choanocytes'. These choanocytes keep the water flowing through the canals in the correct direction by beating their flagellum, they are also important in trapping food items.


How many times do you change the sponge for a hermit crab?

I personally, dont use a sponge beacuse it gets dirty too much, i just mist the crabitat until it have enough humidity. You dont have to change the sponge, if it gets really dirty, boil it in distilled water and place it back in. You need to change the hermie sponge when it becomes so small you cant really use it.
