Produce chemical energy through photosynthesis.
Grow algae and feed small fish.
Act as a nutrient gatherer and recycler.

What characteristic defines the sponge phylum?
Amebocyte cells
Types of spicules
Choanocyte cells
Holdfasts
What ties the support structures together in the sponge?
Flagella

Holdfasts
When an amebocyte is surrounded by layers of spicules to survive the hard times, it is called a...

What does it mean when we say sponges are sessile?
They don't move very often.
They cannot move ever.
They eat small drifting particles.
They have no tissues.
Eden is out for a swim when she finds a dark green flat sponge with many osculums. The sponge is found with a holdfast buried in the shell of a dead crab. She takes a sample off the sponge and looks at it under the microscope on the boat she sees that it has flagellated cells and 6 pointed silica spicules with very little spongin. Using this information what CLASS is Eden's sponge in?
Calcarea
Hexactinellida
Demospongiae
Porifera
Jon is spear fishing and accidentally breaks a chunk of a sponge off and it drifts out to sea, but the rest stays attached to the reef. When Jon returns a year later he notices that the sponge looks whole. What has occurred?
The sponge regenerated
The sponge budded
The sponge formed gemmules.
The sponge mesohyled.
What prevents the sponge from drifting away in the current?
The flagella on the choanocytes.
The downward force from the osculum.
The holdfast on the reef.
The thickness of the mesohyl.
Sponge cells phagocytize (swallow) food bits before breaking them down with enzymes. What type of digestion is this?
Intracellular digestion
Extracellular digestion
Simple digestion
Complex digestion
What part of the cnidocyte cell stores the pressure that allows the sting to happen?
Operculum
Nematocyst

Cnidocil
What part of the cnidocyte cell is the stinger?
Operculum
