रेंगाळणाऱ्या रोपांमध्ये स्पंजमधील जवळजवळ कोणत्याही फ्लॅगेलेटेड पेशी असतात ज्यांना सायटोप्लाझममध्ये कॉलर असतो, ते शरीरातून पाण्याचा प्रवाह कायम ठेवतात,

choanocyte's Usage Examples:

lined with choanocytes, cells with whip-like flagella.

This sponge has long tubular, choanocyte chambers, which are sometimes branched, and no spicules.

choanocytes that engulf them but, instead of digesting them, metamorphose to an ameboid form and carry the sperm through the mesohyl to eggs, which in most cases.

amoebocytes as well as other sponge cells including the phylum specific choanocyte.

It was calculated that the sponge itself (canals, choanocyte chambers and cells) represents only 5% of its total volume, the rest being.

However, a few carnivorous sponges have lost these water flow systems and the choanocytes.

Instead of choanocytes, they have further syncytia, known as choanosyncytia, which form bell-shaped chambers where water enters.

Members of the family are characterised by having long tubular, branched choanocyte chambers; they have no spicules which makes it difficult to determine.

dramatically lower feeding efficiency that differentiation into non-choanocytes entails.

distinguished from the rather similar Sycon raphanus by the fact that the choanocyte chambers are not fused but are free from each other.

water through small pores called ostia, filters out particles in the choanocyte tissue, then moves the water through the spongocoel or central cavity.

resembles Sycon ciliatum but can be distinguished by the fact that the choanocyte chambers are fused.

choanoflagellates – collared flagellates whose cell morphology is similar to the choanocyte cells of certain sponges.
