Sperms released in water are carried to the mesenchyme in sponges by__________?
Correct answer: A. Amoeboid cell
- A. Amoeboid cell
- B. Stipules
- C. Spicules
- D. Spines
Explanation
Amoeboid cells in the sponge mesohyl capture sperm from the water and transport them to the region containing eggs. Spicules form part of the skeleton, while stipules and spines are not the sperm-transport cells. Students may choose c because spicules are prominent sponge structures, but they provide support rather than transport.

About Animal and Plant Cell
Animal and plant cells share a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, ribosomes, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum, but plant cells also have a cellulose cell wall, chloroplasts and a large permanent vacuole. Questions cover organelle structure and function, differences between the two cell types, and how membranes control movement of substances.
