In situ sponge culture enables sponges to be grown continuously. Moreover, input requirements are relatively low, as the sponges consume nutrients available in the water column, without raw materials having to be added. At the same time, the bioremediation potential of sponges(filtering capacity, removal of bacterial and organic material) deducts around 5% of the total environmental impact.  1, record 7, English, - in%20situ%20sponge%20culture

Afin de garantir une quantité suffisante d'éponges pour une application en bioremédiation, la spongiculture in situ est nécessaire. Elle consiste à découper délicatement des fragments à partir d'une éponge dite «parent» et à fixer ces boutures sur un support de culture afin de maintenir les animaux dans leur milieu naturel. Les éponges vont alors se régénérer et commencer leur croissance en filtrant les matières organiques présentes dans la colonne d'eau.  1, record 7, French, - spongiculture%20in%20situ

Material culture is always the direct product of overt action. It consists of tangible goods : the artifacts and paraphernalia a people possess as products of technology. Non-material culture consists of behaviour per se, both overt and covert. Strictly speaking, material culture is really not culture at all. It is the product of culturally determined activity. Behind every artifact are the patterns of culture that give form to the idea for the artifact and the techniques of shaping and using it.  2, record 12, English, - material%20culture
