This category is for any website which deals specifically with the fossil record of sponges. Sponges are animals, most of which live in salt water, attached to another surface, so they remain in one place. Their scientific classification is kingdom animalia and phylum porifera.
Originally, humans used sea sponges for cleaning, but now cleaning sponges are made of synthetic materials.
