Answer: Water is drawn in through small openings on a sponge's body called OSTIA.

The supportive skeleton of a sponge contains SPICULES which provide protection from predators.

Explanation:

Sponges refer to any of the aquatic animals of the phyllum porifera which is normally characterized with porous structures and has horn-like calcareous internal framework.

Sponges usually have multiple pores called "OSTIA" on their bodies that allow water to enter them.

Most sponges are sessile and because of this, they can't run away from predators. They usually have sharp "SPICULES" which are part of their skeleton that provide them some certain degree of defense. Apart from this, they also produce toxins which poisons predators that attempt to consume them

What is the major cause of phytoplankton blooms in the Gulf of Mexico?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Excessive nutrients from fertilizer run off.  

Explanation:

Scientists have suspected that phytoplankton blooms might be connected to agricultural run-off. They got some evidence from a recent study by comparing the timing of irrigation along the west coast of Mexico and phytoplankton blooms in Mexico’s Sea of Cortez. During the comparison, they had found a close correlation. Phytoplankton blooms occurred in the Sea of Cortez shortly after the irrigation. This happened because of carried fertilizers after irrigation and other agricultural run-offs into the sea.

The bloom detected in the Gulf of Mexico on December 13 might be similarly linked to agricultural run-off.
