Given what we know, we can confirm that Ostia are important to sponges because they pull water into the sponge through the beating of their flagella.

<h3>What are Sponges?</h3>

A sponge is an aquatic multicellular organism.
Morphologically, they are very simple organisms, lacking complex structures.
One structure that they do possess is the Ostia.
The Ostia are a series of pores located throughout the body of the sponge.
They serve to draw in water through the beating of multiple flagella.

Therefore, we can confirm that since the Ostia of the sponge are used to pull water into the sponge through the beating of their flagella, the correct answer would be option D.

In the event that the blood pressure is increased because of any explanation, it is detected by the baroreceptor system
The baroreceptor reflex invigorates is the part of the parasympathetic nervous system
The PSNS causes reflation of veins, decreasing total peripheral resistance. It also decrease the heart rate

Sympathetic nervous system (SNS)

Heart rate and blood volume are regulated by the interrelated activities of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS)

mario62 [17]

Answer:No

Explanation:Plants will not just have to rely on one animal to help reproduce. Plants can mimic things such as scents or looks to be an incentive for other animals. Wind and water can also help transport pollen. Plants always have pollinators such as wind, water, insects, and animals. Plants use mimicry in order to attract the biotic pollinators. Plants will never have trouble reproducing because they have so many different pollinators.
