Are sponges natural or manmade

Answer 1

Natural sponges are way more expensive. And since they grow fairly slow and have to be harvested during rather nasty working conditions(by hand, by divers) they're not the most ethical of products.

Answer 2

Synthetic sponges are used for cleaning and are squishy and soft. Also, they are made from cellulose. Real/natural sponges are hard but still absorbent. They both filter water and have holes, though.

Answer 3

Synthetic sponges are more absorbant because they have been tampered with (changed) and I did a science experiment on that question and the synthetic sponge was most absorbant.

Answer 4

Synthetic are used for cleaning and are squishy and soft- natural ones are hard but absorbnt
