How does a sea sponge maintain homeostasis?
Sea sponges maintain homeostasis through a combination of simple diffusion and specialized cells called archaeocytes. These cells regulate the flow of water through the sponge's pores, allowing for the exchange of gases, nutrients, and waste products. Additionally, sea sponges can adjust their water flow rate and filter feeding activity to maintain internal stability in response to changing environmental conditions.
When does a sponge produce genmmules?
Depending on the type of sponge, they can reproduce either sexually or asexually. Sexual reproduction of a sponge is when a male sponge releases a large cloud of sperm in the water and when it passes by a female sponge of the same species it passes through special cells called archaeocytes. This funnels the sperm toward the egg cells already in the female sponge to create the larvae. Depending on the type of sponge, the female will either release the larvae soon afterward or store them and release them later. Asexual reproduction of a sponge happens when each individual sponge produces buds, or packets of several cells inside a protective covering which later develops into adult sponges.
What in a sponge transport food?
In sponges, food is transported primarily through the movement of water facilitated by specialized cells called choanocytes. These cells have flagella that create water currents, drawing in water and trapping tiny food particles like bacteria and plankton. The trapped food is then engulfed by the choanocytes through phagocytosis and can be passed on to other cells, such as archaeocytes, for digestion and distribution throughout the sponge's body. This simple yet effective system allows sponges to efficiently filter and process food from their aquatic environment.
