Just like an earth worm.  A peice breaks off and a new sponge is created.  Cool huh?

No, they would be shallower, but only by a teeny bit. Although the sponge, when dried out, is largely hollow, it does have a finite volume. This volume displaces some of the ocean, so the level rises.\nTo test the theory, put some water in a basin, mark the level, gently put in a few dry sponges. Make sure they are fully submerged.\nIf the level goes up, this shows that the oceans would be shallower without sponges.\nIf the level goes down, you have discovered a material with negative volume; don't stop running until you get to the patent office.

Human waste being biodradable, is ejected into the deep sea on a sub.\nOn a plane, it's held until the plane land and they can empty out that compartment.

Well, I discovered what happens when you image search "bikini bottom"...\nBut anyways, I do not think such an item exsists. This is because the sructure of Bikini Bottom seems to be different in many Spongebob episodes. Sorry...

The "Today" sponge is the best around because it can be inserted 12-24 hours before intercourse.  It must be kept in six hours afterward to be completely effective. Get the sponge wet before inserting. \n\n8-32% of women will get pregnant using this form of birth control and those who've had a vaginal birth already, are even more likely to get pregnant using this method.\n\nThis sponge was taken off the market in 1983 due to plant water contamination. The FDA approved in 2003 to be sold again.\n\n"Elaine Venice" of Seinfeld swore by this method.

starfish can regenerate parts of tehir body from almost nothing. There was a big story nearby of how starfish became overpopulated. A fishing cmpany caught thousands while trying to catch fish. They decided to start catching and killing them. THey cut the starfish up and threw them in teh water. Days later thousands moe appeared because new starfish formed from teh remnants fo the previous ones.

put a little bit of water in it and wait for few minutes, then you use very soft sponge with soap to clean.

So that you can form phosphoenolpyruvate, which can react to form pyruvate and regenerate another ATP molecule-\n\nThis reaction is aimed at converting the relatively low energy phosphoacyl-ester of 3PG to a high-energy form and harvesting the phosphate as ATP. The 3PG is first converted to 2PG by phosphoglycerate mutase and the 2PG conversion to phosphoenoylpyruvate (PEP) is catalyzed by enolase.  Its all a matter of generating a higher energy compound so you can make more ATP, and pyruvate to feed into the TCA cycle in aerobic metabolism, or reduction to lactic acid in anarobic metabolism.  I hope that answered your question.

The artificial cultivation of sponges has been found to be biologically feasible, although little or no commercial success has resulted locally from attempts at this because of various setbacks. The method generally adopted was to fasten small blocks of sponge to cement disks an inch thick and ten inches in diameter. Under normal conditions regeneration begins almost immediately and the cut piece soon adheres firmly to the base. Although a sponge is a marine animal, fragments or “cuttings” will grow like plants and reach marketable size in about 4 years. From 1935 to 1939 more than 140,000 velvet and wool sponges were raised by the Bahamas government on protected planting grounds off Andros Island; 800,000 more at Turneffe Lagoon, east of Belize. In both localities the sponges were almost completely wiped out by a blight. Since this time the farming has not been resumed.

The volume taken up by sponges is so small, there would be no discernible effect- any effect at all would cause be a minuscule drop in the water level.

It should be fine the way you are doing it.  If you want add a little extra solder and then dip it in flux before wiping it with the sponge.  I wouldn't recommend wiping the end with steel wool or solder, as this could remove the solder you need to have on the tip.

all of the human body undergoes regeneration, but some namely the nervous system can only partially regenerate but also takes a very long time in doing so....this also depends on exactly what it is your asking, eg if the spinal cord is severed then you may have tiny regenerated areas but it will not likely allow full motor movement back but if the spinal cord had minor injury say slight compression from a slipped disc then in theory this could completely heal but may take up to 2 years to regain any lost function.... so you see you need to ask your question in a specific context....also regeneration can be thought of in two ways regenerate from complete destruction or regenerate as in small cells that are replaced due to age or defect????

no alligators do not show regeneration.\nanimals like starfish do,when they are cut they regenerate that part of the body and it grows back.\nhowever alligators do not have this property

remove outer skin, peel of a layer, pulverise it in a pestle and mortar, actually look at the website, its a really good explanation!

# Anoxic autotrophs: Obtain hydrogen from chemicals such as sulfur.\n[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[Dead Zones are areas where the bottom water (the water at the sea floor) is anoxic, meaning that it has very low (or completely zero) concentrations of dissolved oxygen.]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]\nDead Zones are areas where the bottom water (the water at the sea floor) is anoxic, meaning that it has very low (or completely zero) concentrations of dissolved oxygen. These dead zones are occurring in many areas along the coasts of major continents, and they are spreading over larger areas of the sea floor. Because very few organisms can tolerate the lack of oxygen in these areas, they can destroy the habitat in which numerous organisms make their home.\n\nThe cause of anoxic bottom waters is fairly simple: the organic matter produced by phytoplankton at the surface of the ocean (in the euphotic zone) sinks to the bottom (the benthic zone) where it is subject to breakdown by the action of bacteria, a process known as bacterial respiration. The problem is, while phytoplankton use carbon dioxide and produce oxygen during photosynthesis, bacteria use oxygen and give off carbon dioxide during respiration. The oxygen used by bacteria is the oxygen dissolved in the water, and that’s the same oxygen that all of the other oxygen-respiring animals on the bottom (crabs, clams, shrimp, and a host of mud-loving creatures) and swimming in the water (zooplankton, fish) require for life to continue.\n\nThe "creeping dead zones" are areas in the ocean where it appears that phytoplankton productivity has been enhanced, or natural water flow has been restricted, leading to increasing bottom water anoxia. If phytoplankton productivity is enhanced, more organic matter is produced, more organic matter sinks to the bottom and is respired by bacteria, and thus more oxygen is consumed. If water flow is restricted, the natural refreshing flow of "oxic" waters (water with normal dissolved oxygen concentrations) is reduced, so that the remaining oxygen is depleted faster.\n\nMany of the areas where increasing bottom water anoxia has recently been observed are near the mouths of major river systems. While Satellite images can’t see the bottom of the ocean, they can see the surface, where sediments from rivers mix with ocean waters. The images shown here are Satellite images (SeaWiFS) observations of the Mississippi River delta, the Yangtze River mouth in China (The Yangtze River mouth is not currently identified as an area with an associated dead zone, but such conditions could develop there in the future), and the Pearl River mouth in China, near Hong Kong.\n\nSeaWiFS can also observe areas where water flow is restricted, such as the Baltic Sea in Europe. The image on the left features Denmark after strong storms caused flooding and increased sediment suspension in the Baltic. On the right is an overview of the Baltic Sea, including a plankton bloom in the Skagerrak just north of Denmark.\n\nThe apparent cause of the creeping dead zones is agriculture, specifically fertilizer. While fertilizer is necessary to foster bumper agricultural crops, it also runs off the fields into the streams and rivers of a watershed. When the fertilizer reaches the ocean, it just becomes more nutrients for the phytoplankton, so they do what they do best: they grow and multiply. Which leads to more organic matter reaching the bottom, more bacterial respiration, and more anoxic bottom water.\n\nThese effects can be magnified by catastrophe. When the heavy rains of Hurricane Floyd caused extensive flooding in North Carolina in September 1999, the heavy load of nutrients (from dead animals, flooded animal waste ponds, and numerous other sources) reached the sounds that lie between the coast and the Outer Banks, oxygen levels in the water plummeted. The picture at the top of the page shows the heavy load of sediments flowing into Pamlico Sound. SeaWiFS captur
