Porifera (sponges) 1 Asconoids have the simplest, see the drawing above. 2  These sponges are small and tube-shaped. 3  The water enters through tiny ostia into one large internal cavity called a spongocoel, and is expelled through one large osculum.he sponges are an ancient group with a fossil record back as far as the Precambrian. There are about 10,000 known species of marine sponges, and about 150 freshwater sponges. They are relatively abundant in all marine waters at all depths. They vary in size from a few millimetres to over two metres across.

A Guide to the Cnidarians Cnidarians take on two basic forms, a medusa and a polyp. The medusa form is a free-swimming structure which consists of an umbrella-shaped body (called a bell), a fringe of tentacles that hang from the edge of the bell, a mouth opening located on the underside of the bell, and a gastrovascular cavity. The mesoglea layer of the medusa body wall is thick and jelly-like.

Gastrovascular Cavity: Definition & Explanation The gastrovascular cavity is essentially an empty space in the organism that is surrounded by tissue. Food is brought into the cavity. The tissue surrounding the cavity secretes enzymes to enable digestion.nidaria. The gastrovascular cavity in Cnidaria is surrounded by an inner tissue layer called the gastrodermis. The outside of the organism has a tissue layer called the epidermis. Between these two tissue layers is a gel-like region called the mesoglea.

Palate Cancer Palate Cancer. The palate is commonly called the roof of the mouth. It is divided into two parts: the bony hard palate in the front, and the fleshy soft palate (called the velum) in the back of the mouth. The hard palate is part of the oral cavity and the soft palate is part of the oropharynx. The hard palate creates a barrier between the mouth and the nasal cavity. A natural opening in the palate for nerves and blood vessels (near the third molar) can create a passageway for a tumor to spread into the nasal cavity.

Body cavities and membranes Like the dorsal cavity, the ventral cavity has two subdivisions. The superior division is called the thoracic cavity. The thoracic cavity is surrounded by the ribs and muscles in the chest. It’s further su divided into lateral pleural cavities (each pleural cavity envelopes a lung) and the mediastinum.t encloses the heart and remaining thoracic organs (trachea, esophagus, ect.). The inferior division of the ventral body cavity is called the “ abdominopelvic cavity ” and is separated from the thoracic cavity by the diaphragm.

Sponge Sponges are animals of the phylum Porifera (/pɒˈrɪfərə/ ; meaning pore bearer). They are multicellular organisms that have bodies full of pores and channels allowing water to circulate through them, consisting of jelly-like mesohyl sandwiched between two thin layers of cells.rchaeocyathids, which some classify as a type of coralline sponge, are common in the Cambrian period from about 530 million years ago, but apparently died out by the end of the Cambrian 490 million years ago.

Gastrovascular cavity Gastrovascular system of the flatworm Dugesia, colored yellow. The gastrovascular cavity is the primary organ of digestion and circulation in two major animal phyla: the Cnidaria (including jellyfish and corals) and Platyhelminthes (flatworms). The cavity may be extensively branched into a system of canals.In cnidarians, the gastrovascular system is also known as the coelenteron, and is commonly known as a blind gut or blind sac, since food enters and waste exits through the same orifice.astrovascular system of the flatworm Dugesia, colored yellow.

Body cavities and membranes The walls of the ventral body cavity and outer covering of its organs contain a thin covering called the serosa (also called serous membrane). It is a double-layered membrane made up of two parts called the “ parietal serosa ” (lines the cavity walls) and “ visceral serosa ” (covers organs in the cavity).ike the dorsal cavity, the ventral cavity has two subdivisions. The superior division is called the thoracic cavity. The thoracic cavity is surrounded by the ribs and muscles in the chest. It’s further su divided into lateral pleural cavities (each pleural cavity envelopes a lung) and the mediastinum.

Porifera Porifera. (invertebrate zoology). The sponges, a phylum of the animal kingdom characterized by the presence of canal systems and chambers through which water is drawn in and released; tissues and organs are absent.he beating of flagella on collar cells or choanocytes, localized in chambers on the interior of the sponge, maintains the water current. Support for the sponge tissues is provided by calcareous or siliceous spicules, or by organic fibers, or by a combination of organic fibers and siliceous spicules.

What body cavity do the following belong to? liver, spleen, gallbladder, urinary bladder? Body Cavaties. The cavities, or spaces, of the body contain the internal organs, or viscera. The two main cavities are called the ventral and dorsal cavities. The ventral is the larger cavity and is subdivided into two parts (thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities) by the diaphragm, a dome-shaped respiratory muscle.

Porifera (sponges) Class Calcarea. As the name suggests sponges in this class have spicules of calcium carbonate. The spicules are either free or fused. They tend to be relatively small, mostly less than 10 cm, and tubular or vase-shaped. All three types of canal system occur in this class. There are about 100 species, mainly marine in water no deeper than 1000m.

- Water moves through the canals, into the chambers, and out through the central canal and osculum. THE SKELETON. The skeleton of a sea sponge is made up of tiny needlelike splinters called spicules. Spicules consist of a mesh of protein called spongin.Many sea sponges can only be identified by the microscopic examination of the skeleton.Because of this, indentification from photographs can become very difficult. sea sponge's body primarily consists of spicules and spongin. Spicules are needle shaped fiberlike structures that act as the sponge's skeleton. Spongin is a protein that helps provide body support. In some instances the spongin will combine with the spicules to provied support, in other times the spongin works alone.

Gastrovascular Cavity: Definition & Explanation Cnidaria. The gastrovascular cavity in Cnidaria is surrounded by an inner tissue layer called the gastrodermis. The outside of the organism has a tissue layer called the epidermis. Between these two tissue layers is a gel-like region called the mesoglea.The mesoglea is made of mostly water with some fibrous tissue.rimitive animals have body plans that are very different from ours. Animals such as jellyfish, corals and flatworms have a much simpler way to handle the digestion of food, as well as the circulation of nutrients around the body. Learn about the structure and function of the gastrovascular cavity in these organisms.
