It's of class Hyalospongiae..
Porifera
the porifera phylum
phylum porifera
Sponges are divided up into three groups depending on their cell/bone structure:CalcareaGlass SpongeDemospongeHope this helps :D
The brown tube sponge is of Kingdom Animalia, phylum Porifera and Class Demospongiae. It is further classified as Order Agelasida, Genus Agelas and species A.conifera.
Phylum ahead of the class, order, family, genus and species. There are four classes; three of them are Calcarea, Hexactinellida and Demospongiae
Phylum Porifera Class Calcarea Order Calcinia Order Calcaronia Class Hexactinellida Order Amphidiscophora Order Hexasterophora Class Demospongiae Order Homoscleromorpha Order Tetractinomorpha Order Ceractinomorpha Phylum Porifera Class Calcarea Order Clathrinida Order Leucosoleniida Order Sycettida Order Leucettida Class Hexactinellida Class Demospongiae Order Haplosclerida Order Poecilosclerida Class Sclerospongiae
Neither, sponges have their own phylum separate from both of those, called Porifera ('pore carriers').
Sponges are classified as "animals" of the phylum Porifera. However, they have several characteristics in common with plants. Most have no specialized tissues or organs, and depend on the flow of sea water to provide oxygen and nutrients.
Tube Sponges are in the Class: Demospongiae, subordinate to the Phylum: Porifera.
Porifera, Cnidaria (Coelenterata), Ctenophora, Annelida, Platyhelminthes, Nematoda, Arthropoda, Mollusca, Echinodermata, Chordata, and several other smaller phyla Answer From above SOme of these smaller phyla include Kinorhyncha Rotifera Hemichordata Ectoprocta Sipuncula Phoronida Echiura Nemertea Tardigrada Entoprocta Chaetognatha Priapulida Acanthocephala Pogonofera Brachiopoda Onychophora
The Demospongiae are the largest class in the phylum Porifera. Their "skeletons" are made of spicules consisting of fibers of the protein spongin, the mineral silica, or both. They contain 90% of all species of sponges.
