I have a science experiment to do. How do you do a sponge absorbency project?
Oh that's quite simple. Find a sponge and get a bowl. Put the sponge in the water and explain how the pores in the sponge suck in the water as you put pressure on it. As you squeeze it explain that the pores release the water through them.
Does sponge sink in water?
Objects float or sink because of their density. An example of an object with low density is a sponge, as it has loads of air bubbles in it, and will float. An example of an object with high density is a brick. This is because the brick doesn't have any air trapped in it, it is "packed in", and is more dense than water, therefore it will sink.
Does the shape of a sponge affect how much water it will absorb?

Does sponges a sponge get oxegyn from water?

How do sponges feed respire and excrete?
"clean" water and "waste" water in a sponge are all the same. Their bodies allow constant flow of water, there is no beginning and end to a sponge; thus technically waste water leaves a sponges body through its many pores.
