Question 53
USING SCIENCE SKILLS
Inferring Use Figure 23-2 to describe the basic structure of a sponge.

The body of most sponges consists of two layers of cells separated by a jelly-like material. The
outer layer of cells protects the interior of the sponge and also has many pores (holes) through
which water can enter the sponge. The inner layer of cells lines the central cavity of the
sponge.
