fibre helps the feces to form bolus. Fibre is not at all digested in the gut. It moves all the way through the gut sticking to the feces and makes it bolus for easy passage.

What is in the food that helps it pass through your gut?
I would say any liquid, either ingested or secreted, but in most part, peristalsis (the wavelike muscular contractions of the alimentary canal) of the gut does most of the contribution in allowing food to be passed through.
Is there a presence of a through gut in porifera?
No. Porifera and Cnidarians lack a through gut.
What is the name of the wave like constraction that propel food along the gut?
Peristalsis is the process by which smooth muscle moves a mass of food (called the food bolus) through the digestive system. There is circular smooth muscle and longitudinal smooth muscle in the digestive tract. Contraction of circluar smooth muscle keeps the food bolus from moving "backward" along the digestive tract by decreasing the diameter of the tract behind the bolus. Contraction of the longitudinal muscle in the digestive tract propels the food bolus "forward" in the digestive tract.
