Amoebocytes are versatile cells found in sponges that play key roles in digestion, reproduction, and transport of nutrients. They can also transform into other cell types as needed.
Choanocytes: Specialized cells in sponges responsible for water flow and capturing food particles
Spicules: Structural elements produced by amoebocytes that provide support and deter predators
Mesohyl: The gelatinous matrix within a sponge where amoebocytes move and function
