Explanation:

Sponges eat 'tiny, floating organic particles' and 'plankton'. They 'filter from the water' that 'flows through their body'.  

'Food is collected by specialized cells' called 'choanocytes' and brought to 'other cells by amoebocytes'.  

They obtain food by filter-feeding food particles from water. Sponges have digestion process through 'intracellular digestion' where 'food particles' are 'digested inside specialized cells'.  

The cells take in the particles through phagocytosis and then digest them, expelling wastes. Sponges have 'holozoic mode of nutrition'.
