According to its raws, the giant sponge can not only be tamed but even ridden as a war beast by invaders. No reports of goblins or elves riding giant sponges has been documented, but maybe its strictly aquatic lifestyle prevents it from being chosen.

Angus Council is carrying out a modelling exercise to calculate the protection provided by the current flood protection scheme in Brechin, which was completed in 2016 and engineered to cope with a one in 200 year event. Currently this species is not considered endangered or threatened by any agencies, however there are a list of potential threats that may effect their survival. Among these threats include fatal diseases such as Sponge Orange Band (SOB), environmental changes, and cyclical bleaching. Researchers are unsure what the cause of SOB is, but evidence supports the hypothesis that environmental changes, rising water temperature in particular, is responsible for the disease. Callahan, B. J. et al. DADA2: high-resolution sample inference from Illumina amplicon data. Nat. Methods 13, 581–583 (2016).She revealed they'd given her the heads up about Marvin serenading Jamie-Lynn in the bath on Monday. Also, suds have substance but have very little weight. You can fill a container to overflowing and it is still not much heavier than the container itself. Phospholipid-derived fatty acids (PLFA) were prepared for isotope analysis in three main steps: (i) modified Bligh-Dyer-Extraction; (ii) chromatographic separation, and (iii) derivatization of functionalized compounds. Details of the step-by-step protocol for PLFAs extraction and identification are delineated in our companion paper 69 with the associated protocol available online ( https://doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.bhnpj5dn). A bioactive peptide consisting of 13 amino acids, KENPVLSLVNGMF, has been identified from this species. The peptide was selectively toxic to human cervical cancer cells ( HeLa), but non-toxic to non-cancerous, human embryonic kidney cell line ( HEK 293 cells).
