Most sea sponges do not hunt, do not sleep, and do not move to catch prey. They are neither nocturnal, diurnal, or crepuscular. The few species that are carnivorous trap prey with sticky threads or spicules, and tend to live in darkened caves where they feed around the clock.
yes they are very impotent they provide shelter, food and are really cool
Yes it is. It filters food particles, lives in large colonies that provide habitats for other animals. Divers know that they come in many beautiful colors too, but they are different from sponges
No, as in most (if not all) sponges, barrel sponges are completely sessile and unable to move locations.
A sponge's defenses are spikes in the sponges body.
Most sponges are marine, but there are some freshwater varieties
fresh water
They eat sea sponges and are carnivorous.
typicaly sponges live in coral reefs with other sponges in their own habitat in the depths of the ocean floor!!!!
invertebrate
flagellated protists
Hexactinellida, Calcarea, Demospongiae, andSclerospongiaeTechnically, however, the Sclerospongiae are not considered sponges. They are very similar, but they are not the same. Like bats and birds who have both evolved the ability to fly but are not the same types of animals, Slerospongiae have evolved and became very similar to sponges, but they are not sponges.
Sponges are filter feeders, which mens that they pimp water through their bodies and absorb the plankton that gets sucked in. Therefore, most sponges prey on plankton. However, there are a few types of carnivorous sponges that actively hunt and capture small curstaceans.
The spicules of some sponges focus and direct sunlight to cells lying below the surface of the sponge, where symbiotic organisms carry out photosynthesis.
Similar cells do not cooperate together.
ur talking bout SpongeBob right?......................................well spongbob likes bakiki bottom but that's just him
The one thing that I’m focused on, are sponges. SPONGES. Many people believe that the type of sponges we’re talking about, are the sponges we clean with... well, you’re wrong. The sponges that scientists keep trying to explain to people that live in the ocean, sea sponges. Now I’m worried for sea sponges, because starfish keep eating them. And frankly I feel very bad for their habitats. Because the ocean needs the sponges help. The ocean relies on porifera/sponges to help the ocean, to help it grow, to help it prosper, and to help animals live and eat.
