Phylum Anthropods also have more complex body systems than Phylum Porifera. Anthropods have an open circulatory system, complete digestive system, and a nervous system which includes a brain, and a ventral nerve cord. Having all these organ systems makes Anthropods more complex as they have more specialized organs which complete all the required tasks with great efficiency. Unlike sponges crabs are motile all their lives. This means that carbs have the ability and adantage of locomotion. This is important to have because as a result of being motile crabs can be both male and female (Dioecious). Being diecious, means that crabs reproduce sexually, which as a result creates more genetic diversity. Sponges can reproduce sexually as well but because they are sessile (unable to move) for its adult life it is harder to do this. In order for them to reproduce sexually to get genetic diversity they have to be hemaphroditic (have both male and female gamates). Sponges send their gamates through the water and hope that it lands on another sponges coller cell. Many gamates do not land on collar cells and as a result they do not become sponges. It is much easier and faster for crabs to reproduce rather than
