They might respire like animals, genetically animal, but they are nothing like them in every other way, it is misleading. Call them colony eukaryotes...they are not truly multicellular... Last edited by Tau; 05-15-2008 at 01:51 PM. |

I dont think you understand how biology classifies things, if something is genetically an animal then it is an animal, the name animal, today, does not relate to movement anymore than orbits relate to geocentic heavenly spheres.

But the word animal comes from the same root word as animate, to move...why not give sponges and corals a new distinct classification? |

But frankly this is boring me, yes I know sponges are on the cellular level, animals...
The word just seems a bit general, ok satisfied now? Happy? |

And sponges are animals, they move vast quantities of water to gather their food. They are not colonies they are individual organisms. (several experiments have demonstrated this!) (Individual coral animals live in colonies that is true, but each coral polyp is an individual creature) You should brush up on biology. wa:do
