The inner layer of a sponge, the mesohyl, contains several types of amoeboid cells, which secrete materials to form a skeleton-like structure for support.
the exterior of a sponge is comprised of flattened cells that form an outer epithelium.
Choanocytes are flagellated cells that line internal cavities and are responsible for pumping water and small particles into the sponge. 
Sponges are truly multicellular organisms.
Sponge cells are unique because throughout their development they can differentiate from one type of cell to another

Answer: sponges are

phylum Porifera

Explanation: There are about nine thousand species of sponges. Sponges have three types of cells which includes

1) Pinacocytes: They are thin walled and flat cells. They line the outer surface of a sponge. Pinacocytes are slightly contractile. The contraction may change the structure of some sponges. Most pinacocytes forms tube like contractile porocytes. Porocytes are responsible for water regulation.

2) Mesohyl: It is a jelly like layer present underneath the pinacocytes. Amoeboid cells are present in mesophyl. The Amoeboid cells are called mesenchyma cells. These cells are responsible for reproduction, secretion, skeletal elements, transporting and storing food and forming contractile rings around openings in the sponge wall.

3)Choanocytes: Also called collar cells are present below the mesohyl. They form the lining of the inner chamber. Choanocytes are flagellated cells. They have a collar like ring of microvilli surrounding a flagellum.The flagellum creates water currents through the sponge.

What type of lenses were used for the first microscopes?
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Here is some background information...

Explanation:

Leeuwenhoek (1633-1723) used melted glass balls to form lenses for apparently crude simple microscopes that nevertheless magnified up to 275 times! Modern tests have concluded that he could have achieved a resolution of two micrometres.

Positively charged DNA migrates more rapidly than negatively charged DNA b. Longer DNA fragments migrate farther on a gel than s
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

<h2>c. Migration distance on a gel is inversely proportional to DNA fragment size </h2>

Explanation:

  • Deoxyribonucleic acid is a genetic material that is a type of macromolecule.
  • It is made up of a monomer that ais called a nucleotide. Each nucleotide is made up of a deoxyribose sugar, a base, and a phosphate group.
  • Due to the presence of phosphate group DNA has negative property. When the DNA is separated by the gel electrophoresis method the size of the fragment of the DNA plays an important role.
  • Those DNA fragments that are small in size migrate faster than those DNA fragments that are larger in size.
  • So the migration distance is inversely proportional to the DNA fragment size.
