What sentence best describes the feeding mechanism of a sponge? Tiny food particles are trapped by flagellated cells as water is drawn through pores in the body of the sponge and exits via the osculum. Siphons draw water into body of the sponge, where particulate food items are trapped by a layer of mucus. Tentacles capture prey items, which are then drawn into the mouth and digested in the gastrovascular cavity.
