Sponges, members of the phylum Porifera, are sessile filter feeders that lack tissues or organs. Instead, specialized cells have

unique functions like ingesting food, support, and reproduction. Such specialization within a sponge body is a result of

Answer:

C) cell differentiation.

Explanation:

Cell differentiation is a process undergone by a cell in which it changes to a specialized form. During the process of cell differentiation, some genes in a single cell becomes turned off or on in a process called GENE EXPRESSION to give rise to cells with specialized functions.

This is the case of this sponge whose specialized cells perform unique functions like ingesting food, support, and reproduction. The specialization of the cells within the sponge is as a result of the process of CELL DIFFERENTIATION.

How are molecules transported across cell membrane against the concentration gradient?.
Masja [62]

Answer: "To move substances against a concentration or electrochemical gradient, a cell must use energy. Active transport mechanisms do just this, expending energy (often in the form of ATP) to maintain the right concentrations of ions and molecules in living cells."

1. Why is the quadrat method useful for estimating snall populations? Explain why the same method would not be useful for counti
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Quadrat method is used for estimating the number of individuals in an area. In this method, a large square area on the ground or water surface is marked, call it an enclave. The number of animals present in this enclave is counted. Then by assuming that the animals are less migratory and are uniformly distributed, their number for a large area is estimated by the use of unitary method of calculation. Example a 4 square feet area has 2 snails, then a 1000 square feet area will have (1000 x 2)/4, i.e, 500 snails in it. Fishes can be counted using this method only if they are confined in a small water body like a lake or a pond. Rivers are flowing so the fishes may move along its length which can give us an underestimate or an overestimate of their numbers. Sea has its depth and huge area, and fishes can be moving randomly in it. Hence this method will not work for river and sea fishes.

Hope this helps :D
