"Sponges reproduce sexually and asexually. They can reproduce asexually by the process of budding, internal and external. External budding occurs when the parent sponge grows a bud on the outside of its body that can either break away or stay connected. Internal budding is when archaeocytes collect in the mesophyl and become surrounded by spongin. The internal bud is called a Gemmeule. An asexually reproduced sponge has exactly the same genetic material as the parent. Sponges can also perform external sexual reproduction. Although sponges are hermaphroditic (both male and female), they do not fertilize their own eggs with their own sperm, as this would be asexual reproduction. Instead, all sponges of a certain species release their eggs and sperm on a certain night, generally the full moon, and they fertilize each other in the water, producing child sponges different from either parent."
