Sponges are classified as animals because they are multicellular, heterotrophic, have no cell walls, and contain a few specialized cells.

The movement of water through a sponge provides a simple mechanism for feeding, respiration, circulation, and excretion.

What sort of help are you asking for? Are you wanting answers to these questions?

I assume you have a textbook or lecture notes in which these things are covered. Re-read all your required material and then check with a reference librarian if you can’t get the answers from your written sources.

Giving help to something like this is not to simply give you the answers; that’s not help, that’s close to cheating or is cheating.
