➜ The small intestine is the main region for the absorption of digested food. The inner lining of small intestine has millions of tiny <u>finger-like projections</u> called villi. The presence of villi gives the inner walls of the small intestine <u>a very large surface area for absorption</u> of digested food. The villi are richly supplied with blood vessels which take the absorbed food to each and every cell of the body.

They have pores in their body thats why they look like sponge we use in kitchen. These pores are known as ostia. The body cavity is known as spongocoel, which open to out side through large pore known as osculum. Their body is composed of two layers, choanocyte and pinacocyte. Choanocytes are flagellated cells having spikes which help in movement of water into body and aid in capturing of food particles. The skeleton is made up of calcium carbonate or silica. A jelly like substance called as mesoglea is present between pinacocyte and choanoderm.
