This drawing shows the internal anatomy of a sponge. what does the arrow in the middle represent? a) the direction of the sponges travel through the water b) the flow of water through the body of a sponge c) the path sperm take to fertilize the egg of a sponge d) the path food takes through the digestive system of a sponge

The correct answer would be B) the flow of water through the body of a sponge.

Sponges are multi-cellular organisms which are devoid of organ systems like digestive system, nervous system, circulatory system et cetera.

They have a unique feeding system in which they keep constant water flow through their bodies. They obtain food and oxygen and remove waste through this water movement.

The movement of water throughout the sponge is unidirectional in nature. It enters the sponge body through ostia and exit from the osculum.

As the water is pumped out, the cells present in the walls filter out the food present in the water.

The offspring will be blood type aa, bb, ab and oo or i

Science27 of the most iconic, jaw-dropping photos of the earth and the moon from spacedave mosher  oct 1, 2018, 11: 13 am etnasa/flickrapollo 11 astronauts took this photo of earth on july 20, 1969.from the ground, earth looks like a boundless fertile plain that beckons to be explored and exploited.but astronauts would beg -  and even plead  - to differ."you realize that people often say, 'i hope to go to heaven when i die,'" jim lovell, an astronaut who flew on the apollo 8 and apollo 13 missions to the moon, previously  told business insider. "in reality, if you think about it, you go to heaven when you're born."lovell has seen first-hand that we live on a tiny rock hopelessly lost in the void. he's also quick to tell you it's the only one we've got - a  fragile spaceship  for more than 7 billion people: "you arrive on a planet that has the proper mass, has the gravity to contain water and an atmosphere, which are the very essentials for life. and you arrive on this planet that's orbiting a star just at the right distance - not too far to be too cold, or too close to be too hot - and just at the right distance to absorb that star's energy and then, with that energy, cause life to evolve here in the first place. in reality, you know, god has really given us a stage, just looking at where we were around the moon, a stage on which we perform. and how that play turns out is up to us, i guess."humanity has recorded photos of earth from hundreds, thousands, millions, and even billions of miles away, some of them taken by lovell himself.these images not only scientists study our dynamic world, but also understand how a habitable planet looks from afar, which aids the search for  more worlds. most importantly, however, the images underscore our peculiar existence on  a mote of cosmic dust.take a moment to ponder 27 of the most arresting images of earth that humankind has ever captured from space.a
