How does a sponge breathe?
Sponges get oxygen by taking water through it's pores. The water moves over cells inside the sponge and oxygen in the water moves into the sponge's cells.
How does a sponges respiratory system work?
They Filtear Feed and through there Reperitory systems they filter out the oxygen into there sestems ,simalar to gils on fish, where the sponges cells then go through a process called cellualar repiration in which thier cells use and reuse energy of the movement of the atoms to produces ATP.
Do sponges require oxygen to breath?
Sponges do not breathe as lungs are required to do so. Sponges do need oxygen to survive, as it is a vital component of aerobic cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is a means of the creation of energy (more specifically ATP) for cells.
What body system is responsible for getting oxygen to the cells?
The respiratory system is responsible for getting oxygen into the body and removing carbon dioxide from the body. This process occurs through breathing, where oxygen is inhaled into the lungs and then transferred into the bloodstream to be delivered to cells throughout the body.
Are sponges unicellular?
If you're talking about kitchen sponges, they do not have cells. However, sea sponges have cells.
What process carries oxygen to and carbon dioxide away from cells?
Respiration is the process that carries oxygen to the cells and removes carbon dioxide from them. Blood carries the oxygen to the cells.
What is the process of getting and using oxygen in the body called?
The process of getting and using oxygen in the body is called respiration. It involves breathing in oxygen through the lungs, which is then transported by the blood to cells where it is used for cellular functions, and carbon dioxide is expelled as waste through exhalation.
How does porifera breathe?
First of all, porifera do not breathe: they respire. Oxygen diffuses through the cells
By what process are nutrients and oxygen oxidized in your cells?
The process by which nutrients and oxygen are oxidized in cells is cellular respiration. It involves the oxidation of nutrients usually by oxygen.
How do sponges digest food and what is the process involved?
Sponges digest food by filtering water through their bodies and trapping tiny particles in their cells. Once the particles are trapped, specialized cells called choanocytes break down the food into smaller pieces. These smaller pieces are then absorbed by other cells for energy and nutrients. This process allows sponges to obtain the necessary nutrients for survival.
How are oxygen and carbon dioxide getting exchanged in body tissues?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged in body tissues through the process of diffusion. Oxygen in the blood enters the tissue cells, where it is used for cellular respiration. Carbon dioxide, a byproduct of this process, moves from the cells into the blood to be transported back to the lungs for exhalation.
Can you Briefly describe the physiological process of nutrition respiration and excretion in a sponge?
As water passes through the sponge particles are trapped and engulfed by choanocytes that line the body cavity. as water moves through the sponges, oxygen is diffused into the cells and carbon dioxide and other wastes such as ammonia is diffused out of the cells see explanation for solution.
