Sponges
A Detailed Approach
![Page 2: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
What makes a sponge?
• Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical
• Three cell types
• Central cavity, or branching chambers
• No tissues or organs

Cell types 1
• Pinacocytes– Outer surface– Mildly contractile
• May change shape of sponge• Porocytes – tubelike and contractile, reg. water
![Page 4: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Cell Types 2
• Mesohyl (Gr. meso, middle + hyl, matter)– Jellylike layer– Mesenchyme cells
• Amoebocytes/archaeocytes• Reproduction• Building skeleton• Food transport and storage• Contractile rings around openings

Cell Types 3
• Choanocytes (Gr. choane, funnel + cyte, cell)– Flagellated, collared cell– Pulls water into sponge– Filters out food

Skeleton
• Spicules– Microscopic needlelike spikes– Made of calcium carbonate or silica– Variety of shapes
• Spongin– Fibrous protein made of collagen– Commercial sponges

Voila!
![Page 8: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Body Forms 1
• Ascon form– Vase like– Simplest and least
common
• Ostia – Outer opening of porocyte
• Spongocoel – Central cavity
![Page 9: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Body Forms 2
• Sycon form– Outer wall appears
folded– Water enters through
dermal pores• Incurrent canals• Radial canals
![Page 10: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Body Forms 3
• Leucon form– Most common– Extensive branched
canal system• Excurrent canals
![Page 11: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Maintenance Functions
• Sponges draw their prey in slowly
• Large populations decrease turbidity of coastal waters
• Small leucon sponge 1 cm diameter and 10 cm tall can filter 20 L of water a day!
![Page 12: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Extreme Feeding (for sponges)
• Some deep sea sponges are carnivorous, eating small crustaceans
• Pinacocytes lining incurrent canals may phagocytize larger food particles
![Page 13: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Response
• No nerve cells
• Responses are rxns of individual cells
• Water circulation– At maximum just before sunset– Sunlight inhibits constriction of cells around
ostia
![Page 14: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Response (cont’d)
• Water circulation may cease
• Choanocytes stop working simultaneously
• Signals some kind of internal communication
![Page 15: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Sexual Reproduction
• Most sponges are monecious (both sexes at same time)
• Self fertilization is rare
• Produce egg and sperm at different times
![Page 16: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Sexual Reproduction (cont’d)
• Choanocytes lose collar and undergo meiosis to form sperm
• Choanocytes and/or amoeboid cells undergo meiosis to form eggs
![Page 17: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Sexual Reproduction (cont’d)
• Sperm and eggs are released via oscula
• Fertilization often occurs in the ocean
• In some sponges, eggs stay in the mesohyl
• Choanocytes become amoeboid and carry sperm to egg
![Page 18: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Larva
• Spend no more than 2 days motile before settling down
![Page 19: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Asexual Reproduction
• More common in freshwater sponges
• When parent sponge dies in winter, releases gemmules
![Page 20: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Asexual Reproduction (cont’d)
• Gemmules– Contain masses of amoeboid cells– Survive freezing and drying– Waits for good conditions– Amoeboid cells stream out of a tiny opening
called the micropyle to form a sponge
![Page 21: Sponges A Detailed Approach. What makes a sponge? Asymmetrical or superficially radially symmetrical Three cell types Central cavity, or branching chambers.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f305503460f94c4abe5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Regeneration
• Small portions separated from original can grow into a new sponge
