The ability of calcareous sponges (Calcarea, Porifera) to develop from dissociated cells
Sponges are the most ancient aquatic multicellular animals, which can be characterized by the peculiar histological structure, which causes high plasticity and mobility of the cellular elements of the sponges. One of the forms of manifestation of such plasticity is cell reaggregation – the ability o...

Sponges are the most ancient aquatic multicellular animals, which can be characterized by the peculiar histological structure, which causes high plasticity and mobility of the cellular elements of the sponges.
