Hexactinellida, Calcarea, Demospongiae, andSclerospongiae
Technically, 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.

Some species of sea sponges are threatened by factors like habitat destruction, pollution, and overharvesting. It is important to monitor and protect these organisms to ensure their survival in the oceans.
As far as officials know, most sponges are not endangered. Very few aquatic sponges are harvested and this small number is not large enough to have an effect on their population. There are over 5000 varieties of known sponges and only some fresh water sponges are known to be in danger at this time.
The collar cells of sponges are similar to choanocytes, which are specialized cells found in both sponges and some types of colonial protozoa. These cells have a collar-like structure with a flagellum that helps in creating water currents to bring in food particles for the sponge to consume.
It's commonly believed that sponges are a group of animals that don't go through the gastrula stage. However, some scientists disagree and believe that sponges do go through gastrulation.
porifera are also called sponges some of the sponges are euplectelia spongilla and sycon
Glass sponges
There is no such nomenclature. Mollusks and sponges are two forms of invertebrates.Some sponges, such as Myxilla incrustans form symbiotic relationships with some mollusks (i.e scallops).
Most sponges are marine, but there are some freshwater varieties
sponges are use in washing plates,glass of water.some sponges are in/on salted water on the ocean floor.
The Porifera are the sea sponges. Some simple examples are the kitchen or bath sponges or other sponges that one can see diving -- from barrel to branch sponges.
Some sponges protect themselves and they don't even know it. Those sponges protect themselves by a hard outer layer of skin.
The first sponges were natural. They are some of the oldest animals to ever live on earth.
Some things that prey on sponges are sea turtles, crustaceans, fish, and echinoderms. Sponges move so slow that they cannot avoid being eaten.
Sea sponges do not have many natural predators. The only animal that has been known to feed on sea sponges are sea slugs.
they communicatetheir cells can communicatehellodear friend i hope some of this information is usefulthe sponges cells can communicate with the sponge cells.for an example say there is 2 sponges and one of the sponges cells communicate with the other sponge it's like talking for sponges.
an invertebrate because they have no backbone.
