The person before me was incorrect in what they said. No, there is no bone that is anatomically call "sole" but the common name of the calcareous is know as the "sole" of the foot.
The three classes of sponge skeletons are siliceous or glass sponges (Class Hexactinellida), calcareous sponges (Class Calcarea), and sponges with a fibrous protein skeleton (Class Demospongiae). Each class has unique structural characteristics that support the sponge's body.
Spicules provide support to the sponge. In fact, a spicule is defined as any (of various shapes and sizes, depending of the sponge) small calcareous or siliceous body embedded along the sponge's cells.
