you are totally saving my ass right now! Got a paleonotology exam coming up and before discovering your videos, I understood nothing about it. Thank you so much and keep up the good work!
Suddenly I understand what dream-Gary said to SpongeBob in SpongeBob’s dream when he said “Beware of your wandering eye you little *poriferan!* ” I always thought he was saying some word synonymous with ‘scoundrel’ or something, when he was actually referring to SpongeBob’s taxonomic classification 😂
First and foremost: Thank you SO much for your content! It really saves me in my studies! However a minor nitpick: I think you got one thing wrong even on the second try: I believe it is SclerospongIAE not SclerospongEA, but as I said, a REALLY tiny nitpick! 😅Also, according to my knowledge, I believe they are considered to be contained within Demospongiae as well.
I was happy to stumble on your site because I think it's the best I've seen! You finally helped me identify some or many of the many marine fossils I find daily in the desert southwest where I live and where they are incredibly well preserved. Since I am a lay person, sort of a citizen scientist. I have some extremely unusual, possibly glass sponge fossils the likes of which I have never seen on any paleontological site. May I send you photos? if anyone could identify them it would be you. I have taken them to a rock shop co-owned by the guy who discovered a new fossil dinosaur named Sonorasauris (or something like that) and to a so called expert at Tucson Gem and Mineral Show, and no one knew what they were. My curiosity skilling me!
Thanks so much for the comment and kind words! ;) Oh well I don't know if I could identify them down to the genus or species, but I am sure I could at least confirm sponge or not sponge haha ;) My email is listed in the about tab of my channel page, send them over ;D
@@GEOGIRL I am not on twitter or instagram or others, but this is extremely important and I would appreciate you being able to receive very important photos of fossils that are destroyed daily in the name of “necessary housing”.. The fossils are priceless and I can in all confidence name this area “The Painted Desert of Marine Fossils”, believe me. Can you send me an email address please. Time is not our friend. Thank you.
@@annembury3181 Yes, my email is listed in the about tab of my channel page, just go to this link: ruclips.net/user/GEOGIRLabout and press view email address. Sorry, I am just hesitant to put it directly in the comments ;) Thanks!
Kind of like how multicellularity led to sex and death, and how sponges can reproduce from parts of themselves, and we can't because we've gotten too big . . . Natural Selection and genetics is something that comes at a certain stage/level. Before then was self-organization of stable non-equilibrium structures from a previous state of equilibrium structures like rocks?
Looking forward for the rest of this series, especially the echinoderms - plenty of extinct clades to talk about haha. I still have my electronic notes for all these invertebrate groups from uni classes, so if you want any help with the research I could happily send them over.
Oh wow! Thanks so much! I am so glad you enjoy this paleo playlist, I hope your group likes it as well. What platform is your fossil group on? RUclips, instagram? I'd love to check it out ;D
Such a happy approach to learning! Question, in areas where corals are dying due to rising sea temperatures are other reef builders such as sponges affected too?
Yes, they are also affected by the acidifcation that is caused by the CO2 & temp. increase, but they are not as directly affected by the temperature increase alone because they don't have the symbiotic algae that the corals have. :)

Haha, so glad I could help! :D
I LOVE your channel, it’s amazing! So much knowledge and information packed in your videos - it’s perfect ! Thank you for providing all of this
Thank you so much for this comment, it made my day !! ;D

OMG! I don't remember that line, but I love it! Those writers were sneaky putting in that scientific terminology 😂👏

Excellent presentation, much appreciated!
Good luck with your channel and very interesting 👍

Great video! Just wish there were captions along with it.
Hope u will cover whole invertebrate paleontology. Best of luck with ur channel
Well said. Thank you💕💕
No problem, glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you very much 👍👍💚💚
Of course :D So glad you liked it!
Just voming up after a major class today to get more info

I would love that, thanks! Anything you are willing to send my way is greatly appreciated, my email is rfphillips@miners.utep.edu
@@GEOGIRL Great, will do so tomorrow morning :)
Thank you so much for helping⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Of course! Glad you found the video helpful :D
your awsome. shared your coral video to my fossil group 1.9 k followers thank you

@@GEOGIRL it’s helping teach my follower on my two Facebook fossil groups. I hunt Paleozoic fossils in Illinois.

Makes me wanna watch SpongeBob you think they nailed it with how life in the ocean has been an is
Thanks!
The best phylum is porifera every cell in this phylum seem work independently
❤
what book did you find the shrimp anecdote in? lol
It's in Chapter 13 of Bringing Fossils to Life: An Introduction to Paleobiology: amzn.to/3kutMgs ! hahaha 😂
One thing about pronunciation: You pronounce "coel" as "cole" and I learned to pronounce it as "seel".
Oh how interesting, thank you for this clarification! I never would've guess that haha ;)
Seemingly so boring, but so interesting in reality
