ARTICLES RELATED TO Sponge

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Sponge

Calcarea Hexactinellida Demospongiae The sponges or poriferans (from Latin porus "pore" and ferre "to bear") are animals of the phylum Porifera. They are primitive, sessile, mostly marine, waterdwelling filter feeders that pump water through their matrix to filter out particulates of food matter. Sponges are among the simplest of animals, with partially differentiated tissues but without muscles, nerves, or internal organs. In some ways they are closer to being cell colonies ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Contraceptive sponge
The contraceptive sponge, marketed in the U.S. under the brand "Today," combines barrier and spermicidal techniques to prevent conception. The sponges are inserted vaginally prior to intercourse, and must be placed over the cervix to be effective. An elastic band across the sponge is present to facilitate removal. Effectiveness prevention of pregnancy is about 95% (that is, studies show that in 95% of couples using only this method, the woman did not become pregnant), making the contraceptive sponge only slightly more effective than spermicidal foam. When combined with condoms, sponges are as ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia II - Sponge - Anatomy

Sponges comprise only four types of cells: Choanocytes (also known as "collar cells"), which line the spongocoel and function as the sponge's digestive system, are remarkably similar to the protistan choanoflagellates. Porocytes are tubular cells that make up the pores. Flat epidermal cells line the outside of the sponge and form its skin. Amoebocytes live between the choanocytes and the epidermis. They carry out many of the sponge's functions, such as transport of nutrients, secretion of the spicules, ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Calcareous sponge

The Calcareous sponges belong to the Class Calcarea and are characterized by spicules made out of calcium carbonate (calcite). If one were to look at a poriferan spicule under the microscope, it might resemble the mercedes-benz emblem. Indeed, this is how the spicules in the calcaerous sponges look. However, instead of the common three-pointed star shape, calcareous spicules can be four-pointed. All sponges in this class are strictly marine dwellers. All three body plans are represented within class Calcarea : asconoid, sy ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Urethral sponge

The urethral sponge is a spongy cushion of tissue, found in the lower genital area of women, that sits against both the pubic bone and vaginal wall, and surrounds the urethra. The urethral sponge is composed of erectile tissue; during arousal, it becomes swollen with blood, compressing the urethra, helping prevent urination during sexual activity (along with the pubococcygeus muscle). Additionally, the urethral sponge contains the Skene's glands, which with continued stimulation, may produce an ejaculate (usually clear in color ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Choanocyte

Choanocytes (also known as "collar cells") are cells that line the interior body walls of sponges that contain a central flagellum surrounded by a collar of microvilli. It is the closest family member to the free-living ancester called chanoflagellate The flagellum beats regularly, creating a water flow across the microvilli which can then filter nutrients and other food from the water taken from the collar of the sponge. The sponge-like propriety of these cells is that they

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Venus' Flower Basket

The Venus' Flower Basket, or Euplectella aspergillum, is the only Poriferan in the class Hexactenellida to be used in hobbyists' aquariums. This is because Hexactinellid sponges are mainly deep ocean sponges that are not suitable for domestic aquarium environments. In traditional Asian cultures, this particular sponge was given as a wedding gift due to the fact that certain bioluminescent shrimp tend to form a symbiosis with them. The sponge houses two small shrimp, a male and a female, who live out their lives inside th ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Choanoflagellate

The choanoflagellates are a group of flagellate protozoa. They are considered to be the closest relatives of the animals, and in particular may be the direct ancestors of sponges. Each choanoflagellate has a single flagellum, surrounded by a ring of hairlike protrusions called microvilli, forming a cylindrical or conical collar (choanos in Greek). The flagellum pulls water through the collar, and small food particles are captured by the microvilli and ingested. It also pushes free-swimming cells along, as in animal sperm, where ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Nervous system

The nervous system of an animal coordinates the activity of the muscles, monitors the organs, constructs and processes input from the senses, and initiates actions. Prominent participants in a nervous system include neurons and nerves which play roles in such coordination. In animals without brains, the nervous system does not generate or conduct thoughts and emotions. Thus it is the system that animates "animals" (sponges are an exception). Chemicals that target the activity of nerves generally are the most rapidly act ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Boston cream pie

The Boston Cream Pie is actually a cake, not a pie. The idea of it being a pie most likely stems from the easier avaliability of Pie Tins over Cake Pans during the time the dish originated.

Afterwards, the cake is topped with a chocolate glaz ...

Sponge: Encyclopedia - Bilateria

The Bilateria, having bilateral symmetry, are a subregnum (a major group) of animals, including the majority of phyla; the most notable exceptions are the sponges and cnidarians. For the most part, Bilateria have bodies that develop from three different germ layers, called the endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm. From this they are called triploblastic. Nearly all are bilaterally symmetrical, or approximately so. The most notable exception is the echinoderms, which are radially symmetrical as adults, but are bilaterally symmetrical as la ...
