Erosion patterns visible on the walls and ceilings of today's dry chambers and galleries, which can only be formed by running water of high flow rate, are a sign for the formation of those parts under water. Spongelike structures and forked gallery formation seen particularly on the eastern branch of the show cave is an indication of the formation of a phreatic zone. It is believed that the water of the cave cures diabetes and stomach diseases.

Both horse-flies and botflies (Oestridae) are sometimes referred to as gadflies. Adult horse-flies feed on nectar and plant exudates; the males have weak mouthparts and only the females bite animals to obtain enough protein from blood to produce eggs. The mouthparts of females are formed into a stout stabbing organ with two pairs of sharp cutting blades, and a spongelike part used to lap up the blood that flows from the wound. The larvae are predaceous and grow in semiaquatic habitats.

The formation of ice from salt water produces marked changes in the composition of the nearby unfrozen water. When water freezes, most impurities are excluded from the water crystals; even ice from seawater is relatively fresh compared with the seawater from which it is formed. As a result of forcing the impurities out, such as salt and other ions, sea ice is very porous and spongelike, quite different from the solid ice produced when fresh water freezes. As the seawater freezes and salt is forced out of the pure ice crystal lattice, the surrounding water becomes more saline as concentrated brine leaks out.

This behaviour means that they may carry disease-causing organisms from one host to another. The large animals and livestock mostly bitten by horse- flies are generally powerless to dislodge the fly, so there is no selective advantage for the flies to evolve a less immediately painful bite. Quoting Natalie Bungay, British Pest Control Association Tabanus mouthparts: The sharp cutting stylets are on the right, the spongelike lapping part in the centre. The mouthparts of females are of the usual dipteran form and consist of a bundle of six chitinous stylets that, together with a fold of the fleshy labium, form the proboscis.

Suction cavitation occurs when the pump suction is under a low-pressure/high-vacuum condition where the liquid turns into a vapor at the eye of the pump impeller. This vapor is carried over to the discharge side of the pump, where it no longer sees vacuum and is compressed back into a liquid by the discharge pressure. This imploding action occurs violently and attacks the face of the impeller. An impeller that has been operating under a suction cavitation condition can have large chunks of material removed from its face or very small bits of material removed, causing the impeller to look spongelike.

The structure behaves optically as if it consisted of a stack of 88 diffraction gratings, making Aphrodita one of the most iridescent of marine organisms. Magnificent non-iridescent colours of blue-and-yellow macaw created by random nanochannels Deformed matrices, consisting of randomly oriented nanochannels in a spongelike keratin matrix, create the diffuse non-iridescent blue colour of Ara ararauna, the blue-and-yellow macaw. Since the reflections are not all arranged in the same direction, the colours, while still magnificent, do not vary much with angle, so they are not iridescent. The most intense blue known in nature: Pollia condensata berries Spiral coils, formed of helicoidally stacked cellulose microfibrils, create Bragg reflection in the "marble berries" of the African herb Pollia condensata, resulting in the most intense blue coloration known in nature.
