Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences discovered the 600 million year old SpongeBob Squa

This is a sponge fossil that has been around for 600 million years, and it was found in Guizhou. Biological researchers say this is the only one-of-a-kind specimen at present. When it comes to sponges, everyone will definitely think that when washing dishes, everyone generally wipes them with a sponge, so that the dishes can be washed cleanly, is this specimen this sponge?

And in fact, this is not the case, this sponge is not the ordinary sponge we usually see, it is an animal, this animal is a sponge. <>

In the earliest times, sponges were also considered a plant. Later, the technology became more and more developed, and it was finally determined that the sponge was an animal under the microscope. The sponge has several characteristics, first of all, it does not have a cell wall, and another reason is that the sponge is ovoviviparous, and it is a very primitive multicellular animal.

systematically consists of two layers, inside and outside. The existence of sponges has been around since a year ago, and when the sponge is young, it can move around freely, and then when it becomes an adult, it will attach to other objects. <>

Once attached to other objects, it will not move in any way. Although the sponges don't move at all, they are very easy to eat because they have many small holes on their bodies. These small holes allow the seawater to flow through their body, and the large holes are the outlets so that they can catch their food well.

Later, after some biological scientists discovered the sponge, they have been using it as a cleaning product. <>

In addition to cleansing, the sponge also has a good anti-inflammatory effect, and it seems that the sponge is very useful for the whole body. And this time in Guizhou found a 600 million-year-old sponge fossil, this is very rare, when paleontological scientists found this sponge fossil, they were very excited. For paleontologists, their daily work is like guessing a blind box, not knowing which day they will guess some surprises, and then lift the veil of mystery for the world.

The appearance is ugly, like a barnacle, but much larger than the barnacle, which is grayish-white.

Its shape is not much different from that of a sponge, but its color is relatively transparent, to be precise, that is, its shape is not much different from that of a sponge.

Its appearance is very strange, and it has been verified that this fossil is a primitive sponge fossil, 600 million years old, showing gray, no tissues and organs, only cell differentiation.
