What part of the sponge does water flow in?
The part of the sponge the water flows in is the hole.
The collar cells draw water through the sponge's many pores and into the internal cavity of the sponge by beating their?
flagella
What is a flagellated cell that sweeps water through a sponge's body?
the central cavity
Does sponges a sponge get oxegyn from water?
Water is brought through cilia-lined pores into the hollow cavity of the sponge. As water passes through the pores, the cilia trap oxygen to breathe
Tell how a sponge accomplishes each of the nine life processes?
A sponge eats and breathes by filtering water through its body. Different cells perform these life processes. Water flows through numerous pores in the sponge's skin. These pores lead into a central cavity, the spongocoel, which is lined with choanocytes, or collar cells. Each collar cell has a flagella, a tiny whiplike structure that creates a current to help draw
How many osculum is in sponges?
osculum - a large opening in a sponge through which water flows out of the sponge. Sponges may have more than one oscula.
What are pores and where are pores on a sponges body?
Allow materials to enter and leave the sponge
Do porifera have digestive cavity or digestive tract?
Sponges have flagellated cells over the surface of their bodies, these are cells that have tails that wiggles. The collective effort of all these cells creates a water current through the many porous openings in the sponges body. It is a water based circulatory system.
Water leaves the internal cavity of a sponge through the?
here and there is the answer u are looking for i mean, come on its homework or a quiz look in a book or use your notes
What are some key facts about sponges?
Facts From : Staight a student ok here are the answers....System TypeSponges SystemMuscular-SkeletalA sponge is a hollow tube with many pores or openings. The skeleton is made of lime or silicon.DigestionA sponge takes in food via the water that flows through the pores.NervousA sponge has a very low level reaction to the world around it and does not have a brain per se.CirculationA sponge has water flow in through the pores. The water contains the food and oxygen the sponge needs.RespirationA sponge takes in water through its pores and in more advanced forms, with canals that move the water to all throughout the sponge. Then the oxygen from the water is used.ReproductionA sponge reproduces by budding and also sexually.ExcretionA sponge has carbon dioxide and other wastes removed as the water moves in and out through the pores.SymmetryA sponge has either radial symmetry or is asymmetrical.ColorationA sponge is white, red, orange, green, yellow, brown, purple, black (colors)
What is mode of nutrition in sponges?
Sponges are porous and sea water flows in and out of sponges. The sea water carry all sorts of nutrients, like algae, bacteria and smaller organisms, which are trapped within the sponge by minute hair-like cilia. This is what gives the sponge energy. The sponge is made of uni-cellular organisms but these cannot survive alone. The sponge is a colony of these unicellular organisms and survives as one.
Where are collar cells located and what are two functions of these specialized cells?
Choanocyte (collar cells) are any of the flagellated cells located in the body cavity of a sponge. They surround the base of the flagellum. The function of these cells is to maintain the flow of water through the body of the sponge.
