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.

The phylum Porifera was the first group of animals to be found but they don't have a special digestive system because they are a sponge, the sponge takes in food via the water that flows through the pores.
