A young girl walking along the beach discovers a sea sponge washed up on the shore. She pokes it with her finger, and the animal

contracts locally in response. Because the sea sponge reacted to her poke, the girl concludes that this animal has a brain. Is this conclusion correct?
A) Yes, if an animal responds to any type of touch or sensory signal, the animal must have a brain where such a signal is processed.
B) Yes, sea sponges are known to have brains; however, these structures are relatively simple compared to the brains of vertebrates.
C) No, sea sponges possess paired ganglia that process their responses to touch or environmental changes (much like flatworms).
D) No, sea sponges actually lack any type of nervous system—the reaction the girl observed is the result of a local population of touch-sensitive (non-neuronal) cells.
E) None of the answer options is correct.

How does the diversity of life in the sublittoral zone compare to that of the upper intertidal zone?
Svet_ta [14]
The correct option is this: THERE IS MORE BIODIVERSITY IN THE SUBLITTORIAL ZONE COMPARE TO THE UPPER INTERTIDAL ZONE BECAUSE THERE IS LESS TEMPERATURE VARIATION IN THIS REGION.
The sublittorial zone refers to the part of the ocean that is about 200 meters away from the surface. The zone is characterized by constant temperature as a result of the constant sunlight that reaches the depth; this leads to more biodiversity in this zone.
