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.
What kind of fertilization do sponges use in their reproductive process?
Sponges use internal fertilization in their reproductive process.
How do sponges get nutriton?
Sponges filter their food when water flows by.
Do sea sponges make there own food?
No, sea sponges can not make their own food. They obtain their nutrition from the food particles in the water. Sponges primarily eat bacteria, phytoplankton, and other small food bits out of the water.
What is a sponges source of food?
Alage
What body function process do all invertebrates except sponges have?
A process of digestion
What is the name of the process of sponges getting oxygen into their cells?
The process is called diffusion
What are the holes in sponges called?
The holes in sponges are called pores. These pores help sponges to filter water and capture food particles for nourishment.
How do sponges ingest food?
sponges feed through their pores or holes, their pores create a current pulling food into the central cavity of the sponge. the food sticks to the collar cells that lines the central cavity, there the amoebocytes pick up the food and digest it, carrying the nutrients to the other cells.summary:porescollar cellsamoebocytesother cells.
Living things that can NOT make their own food?
Sponges
Sponges obtain the food they need for survival by?
they filter food from the water so the food comes to them
What does sea sponges eat mostly?
Sponges absorb their food by their little holes in the sponge. Because most adult sponges can't travel in search of food they get their food by a process called filter feeding. Filter feeding is a method in which an organism feeds by filtering small particles of food from water that passes by or through some part of the organism.
