The osculum
osculum - a large opening in a sponge through which water flows out of the sponge. Sponges may have more than one oscula.
The osculum is an excretory structure in the living sponge, a large opening to the outside through which the current of water exits after passing through the spongocoel. Wastes diffuse into the water and the water exits through the osculum at a velocity of nearly 8.4 cm/second, carrying away with it the sponge's wastes. The size of the osculum is regulated by the myocyte. Its size, in turn, determines the amount of water flowing through the sponge.
An animal with collar cells, an osculum, and spicules is likely a sponge. Sponges are simple aquatic animals that filter feed using collar cells and have a central opening called an osculum through which water exits their bodies. Spicules are tiny, hard structures that provide support and structure to the sponge's body.
It is called the osculum.
