The least complex animals are often considered to be sponges, belonging to the phylum Porifera. Sponges lack true tissues and organs, instead consisting of a simple structure made up of specialized cells that perform various functions. They are primarily composed of a porous body that allows water to flow through, facilitating nutrient absorption and waste removal. This simplicity makes them some of the most primitive multicellular organisms in the animal kingdom.
