Poriferans are commonly called sponges.
These are multicellular organisms which are sessile/sedentary in nature.
Most of them are marine while a few are fresh water forms.
Body is cylindrical, asymmetrical or has radial symmetry.
Body wall contains numerous pores called ostia through which water enters in the body through a canal system into the central body cavity, called spongocoel .
Body also contains one or more openings called oscula (-um/singular) through which water passes out from the body.
Reproduction may be asexual or sexual.
