Where are collar cells located and what are two functions of these specialized cells?
Choanocyte (collar cells) are any of the flagellated cells located in the body cavity of a sponge. They surround the base of the flagellum. The function of these cells is to maintain the flow of water through the body of the sponge.

How are nutrients dispersed to all of the cells of a sponge?
In sponges, water containing nutrients flows through numerous channels in their body. Specialized cells called choanocytes capture nutrients from the water and pass them onto other cells in the sponge's body for distribution. This allows for the efficient dispersal of nutrients to all cells in the sponge.
