Phylum Porifera: Sponges
It's finally time to start diving into individual animal phyla! First up is Porifera. This includes all the sponges. These are funky looking organisms, almost none of which exhibit any kind of symmetry, nor do they possess any tissues or organs. What are they all about? How to they feed? How do they reproduce? Let's learn all about sponges now!

After spending weeks reading my zoology textbook, I finally understand the material thanks to your videos. Thank you.
How important is this channel where this young man pumps out educational gold such as in this video? For someone like myself, where the last time I was a student participating in my education was my high school days in 1984 (not counting military & vocational training classes), it is life enhancing! Pause the judgement of that appraisal as being over-the-top and melodramatic for a second, because Prof. Dave and a few other channels like his have allowed me to better understand this Earth that I've walked on, swam in, and flew over for 55+ years. That helps me to communicate with my fellow Earthlings when the conversation turns to important and divisive issues such as climate change, evolution, or the current pandemic. Most importantly, it gives me hope that I will be able to understand my granddaughter's homework. She'll enter kindergarten this September.
I like the way this man teach, keep it up
I'm glad you are going to do Cnidaria. It's one of my favorite phyla, particularly siphonophores like the Portuguese man o' war.
Professor Dave, explain to me why I like your videos so much
This was fun and interesting to watch, thank you Dave!
Ryan Helcoski is an excellent science-writer. Thank You for sharing his work, Professor Dave.
That's a very exciting series you have initiated! I've always wished for a channel where I can learn taxonomy in animal kingdom! Thank you!
Now I'm trying to figure out, how much of Spongebob Squarepants' lore correlates with this.
writing a thesis on natural products and wanted to introduce some basic sponge physio, nice video, very useful.
This video is absolutely amazing and it is totally the kind of educational content that is right up my alley! Please do a whole video on cnidarians next.

Prosser Dave. Please continue explaining things. I don't always understand it fully(I have a humanities degree. Don't hold it against me) but you always explain it in a way I can understand enough to do more learning!

When we say that some sponges can live 100-1000 years, does that mean that they die of old age? If so, how similar is that ageing process with the ageing that occurs in more complex animals? What does an, "old sponge" look like?

When are you going to do a video on sponges that are 100% silica? 🤣 One of my favorite dunks of all time.
I used to follow this guy Ben Davidson a few years ago and than Ben introduced me to Dave here and I realized I was following the wrong guy. Ben acted like a child when Dave challenged him and basically through a temper tantrum instead of presenting clear and concise arguments.
What is the difference between budding and fragmentation?
@GuardianSoulkeeper

Fragmentation occurs when a part of the sponge is cut/broken off by external forces. Budding occurs as a natural process within the sponge's life cycle.

Hey I got a Video Idea if you haven’t done it yet It’s a Bit controversial but you have a way of dealing with things to be polite about it One of the bigger Arguments with the attack on 9/11 is that Jet Fuel Can’t Melt Steel Beams...
