They filter feed.
This means that water flows through the pores in their bodies and special cells with hairs strain the water and keep tiny food particles for the sponge to digest.
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.
they filter food from the water so the food comes to them
Sponges are consumers, as they are animals that filter feed on particles suspended in water to obtain their food. They do not produce their own food through photosynthesis like plants do.
Sponges filter their food when water flows by.
they observe water,dirt,dust,and bacteria that the sponge is obtaining
All sponges draw water in, catch water borne food particles, and then expel the water over and over, they are known as filter feeders.
No, sponges do not eat kelp. Sponges are filter feeders that obtain their nutrients by filtering small particles, such as plankton and bacteria, from the water. They do not have a digestive system to consume larger organisms like kelp. Instead, they rely on the flow of water through their porous bodies to capture microscopic food sources.
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.
Sponges obtain food by filter feeding. They draw in water through pores on their body and filter out tiny particles, such as bacteria and plankton, to feed on. The water is then expelled through a larger opening called the osculum.
Water provides structural support to sponges, helping them maintain their shape and enabling them to filter food particles from the water passing through their pores. In addition, water carries oxygen and nutrients to the cells of the sponge and helps in waste removal.
Sponges use their porous bodies to absorb water through tiny pores called ostia. The water is then filtered through specialized cells called choanocytes, which trap and consume food particles. The filtered water is then expelled through larger openings called oscula. This process helps sponges obtain nutrients and oxygen from the water while also removing waste.
A tube sponge gets their good from a fliter in there mouth. ( The fliter is there mouth)
