Pore-bearing animals belong to the Phylum Porifera.
The scientific word Porifera is of Latin descent and translates as porus = pore and ferre = to bear. This Phylum consists of sponges whose body is made up of numerous pores. Sponges are the simplest multicellular organisms that dwell at the bottom of the water.
They attach ‘themselves to a surface’, grow and feed from there. The body pores are known as ‘ostia’ which lead into a ‘series of canals’ forming the ‘canal system’ through which water flows in and out.
