Sponges are able to reproduce sexually or asexually. Most sponges are monoecious. Sperm are formed from choanocytes; and oocytes derive from choanocytes in some sponges, and archaeocytes in others. Sperm are released into open water. Some sponges have oviparous fertilization where sperm and eggs meet in open water. In other species sperm are taken into the bodies of other sponges and fertilized inside; this is known as viviparous fertilization. The free-swimming larvae, known as parenchymula, serve as one of the main forms of dispersal for this largely sessile phylum. Asexual reproduction of sponges is through budding, where a small piece of sponge falls off of the main sponge and grows into a new one. Many freshwater sponges form small structures known as gemmules, which function as overwintering devices. These are similar to a bacterium's endospore. Gemmules are made up of amoebocytes surrounded by a layer of spicules and can survive conditions that would kill adult sponges. When the environment becomes less hostile, the gemmule resumes growing.

Sponges are Porifera; hydra are Cniderians.\n\nPorifera have body pores (ostia), canals and chambers that serve for passage of water. They also have choanocytes (collar cells) specialized cells that create water currents, as they are filter feeders.  \n\nCnidarians have stinging cells organelles called nematocytes or cnidocytes. They also have a nerve net with symmettrical and asymmetrical synapses.  They have a muscular system.

Latin Name: Tubastrea, Tubastrea faulkneri, \nCommon Name: Sun Polyp Coral: Orange \nAlso known as Sun Polyp, Tubastrea \n\nFast Facts : Commonly called Sun Coral or "Sun Polyp", this is not a "polyp", as in a type of "Zooanthid" or "Polyp Rock", rather, it is a hard coral. It is non photosynthetic and should be fed for successful long-term maintenance. Offer frozen brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, finely chopped shrimp, seafoods, etc. Has been known to thrive for years in public aquariums, but requires dedicated care. Requires good water movement and dim or indirect lighting. Preferably, place in shaded areas of the aquarium.

Richard Dawkins has two wonderful chapters on cnidarians (jellyfish) and poriferans (sponges) in 'The Ancestor's Tale.'\n\nCnidarians have two body plans, the medusa (jellyfish) and the polyp (sea anemones and hydras).  Polyps often reproduce by budding and can make huge colonies of organisms.  The portuguese-man-of-war is actually a complex colony of medusa and polyp forms.  (BTW, he has a great discussion about how the stinger cell in jellyfish may be the most complex structure in any cell anywhere in the animal and plant kingdoms. Way cool!)\n\nPoriferans (sponges) are even simpler organisms.  Although they are ostensibly multicellular organisms, with several types of cells, these cells don't organize themselves into specialized tissues and organs. Sponges are able to reproduce both asexually and sexually.\n\nSo the evolutionary significance is that an individual is basically a colony.  As such they are right at the boundary between single-celled and multi-celled creatures.  They demonstrate how multi-celled organisms could arise as a colony of cooperating single-cells.

Penguins, bears and seals. Whales. That is a consensus. As for the flaura, lichen ... try looking the remainder up.

There are 15 species of porcupine fish, but they mainly feed on coral and mollusks. A mollusk is a snail or a squid or octopus I believe. Coral are those small organisms the reefs are made out of, like a coral reef.

Im a science teacher for class 10th and i think i can help you out. Butea is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the pea family, Fabaceae. It includes many species of trees & shrubs. Butea Parviflora is also commonly known as Climbing Butea. Stenella consists in the group of aquatic species of ANIMALS. Normally dolphins. This may answer your question

How could someone name oceanlife animals if they themselves don't know? Do you mean rare species? I am not very sure but search it on the internet. Happy Valentine's Day!
