[[Image:Choanocyte.jpg|right]] Choanocyte (collar cell) - a flagellated cell that lines the interior of the central cavity (spongocoel) of a [[sponge]]. Choanocytes have a tubular collar with an extended [[flagellum]] that faces the spongocoel and creates currents that force water into the interstices of the sponge. Suspended food particles, such as plankton, are trapped by the choanocytes and passed to an amoebocyte that carries the food to other cells.[http://www8.nos.noaa.gov/coris_glossary/index.aspx?letter=c] [[Category:porifera]]
