Sponges primarily feed through a process called filter feeding. They draw in water through their porous bodies, trapping microscopic particles such as bacteria, plankton, and organic matter, which are then consumed. Specialized cells called choanocytes create water currents and capture food particles, allowing sponges to absorb nutrients efficiently. This diet supports their simple, sessile lifestyle in aquatic environments.
