Sponges have collar cells, osculum, and spicules.
Sponges have collar cells, osculum, and spicules.
it is scleroblast cells which produce spicules which are modified amoebocytes
they have multiple functions, including the digestion of food particles and the transport of nutrients to other cells using the formation of pseudopodia for locomotion. The amoebocytes can also form skeletal fibers made of calcium carbonate called spicules.
Because no other animal has anything like collar cells..
yes
Sponges have collar cells, osculum, and spicules.

Sponges have collar cells, osculum, and spicules.
why are collar cells important in classifying sponges as animals
Porifera are sea sponges. They have no symmetry (asymmetrical) and they are one of the most basic forms of life. They have a 2 cell layer wall made of collar cells, spicules, amoeba like cells, and a layer of epidermal like cells. The spicules and the amoeba like cells are in between the layer of collar cells and epidermal cells. Sponges also have pores throughout their structure. Porifera include freshwater sponges as well of marine varieties. Freshwater sponges are common although not obvious. Frequently they are green in color due to included algae.

Porifera are pore bearing animals . Pores include ostia and osculum . they possess choanocytes or collard cells .
Porifera are sponges, they have no main organs or tissues. They are a loose aggregation of cells. To eat they pump water though their system and catch the particles in the water. A very basic cell structure.
Jellyfish do not have collar cells. Sponges have collar cells, and yes, they are used for filter feeding.

collar cell- choancyte that is most likely in sponges
