Sponges avoid desiccation primarily by living in aquatic environments, which provide a constant supply of water to maintain their cellular structure and function. They have porous bodies that allow water to flow through, facilitating nutrient uptake and waste removal while preventing dehydration. Additionally, when exposed to air, some sponges can enter a dormant state, contracting their bodies to reduce water loss until they are re-submerged. This adaptability helps them survive in fluctuating conditions.
