In sponges, the transport and digestion of nutrients occur through a specialized system involving choanocytes, which are flagellated cells that create water currents and trap food particles. The trapped food is then phagocytized by the choanocytes or passed to amoebocytes, which distribute nutrients throughout the sponge's body. This cellular-level digestion allows sponges to efficiently process and utilize nutrients without a centralized digestive system.
