  6. #sponges hard skeletal needles keep their shape when buried n sediement so they fossilize well fossil indicate that sponges were alive at least 550 million years ago amazingly the oldest known forms look

    Independent origins of spicules reconcile paleontological and molecular evidence of sponge evolutionary history science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv by Maria Eleonora Rossi et al.

    "the first sponges were soft-bodied and lacked mineralized skeletons. That's why we don't see sponge spicules in rocks from around 600 million years ago—there simply weren't any to preserve... spicules evolved independently in different sponge groups"

  16. #Sponges are among earth’s most #ancient animals, but exactly when they #evolved have long puzzled scientists. #Genetic information from living sponges, as well as chemical signals from ancient rocks, suggests that sponges evolved at least 650 million years ago.

  23. A large sponge, a cluster of anemones, and other life is seen nearly 230 meters deep at an area of the seabed that was very recently covered by the George VI Ice Shelf in Antarctica. Sponges can grow very slowly, sometimes less than two centimeters a year, so the size of this specimen suggests this community has been active for decades, perhaps even hundreds of years.
