The nutrients that are absorbed through the villi are transfered to the blood stream where it can be transfered to other parts of the body. So the vessels enable the villi to transfer nutrients to the blood system.

What is the function of blood vessels of the villi?
I believe the function is to transfer oxygen to other parts of the body.
What does villi contain - tissue or blood vessels?
yes
What can absorb food and pass it into the blood vessels from the ileum?
Small Intestine.
Are the only blood cells that function entirely in blood vessels?
The only blood cells that function entirely within the blood vessels are red blood cells.
What the function of blood vessel?
Blood Vessels-are the passageway of blood.
What is the main function of the blood vessel?
The main fuction of blood vessels is to help the blood reach the arteries
What does the digestive system do for the circulatory system?
When your food is being digested and it is in your small intestines and the villi sucks up the nutrients it gives the nutrients to blood vessels which take it to your cells. Small intestines and villi are parts of digestive system. Blood vessels and cells are part of circulatory system.
What are the function of villi?
the villi are tiny finger-like protrusions lining the small intestines. Digested food passes the villi and broken-down food molecules are absorbed through a wall of cells, and into tiny blood vessels inside the villi called capillaries. Nutrient filled blood from the capillaries joins the main bloodstream in veins around the intestines, ready to be used in other parts of the body. Having villi lining the intestines ensures maximum absorption of nutrients through a huge surface area.
What absorbers food?
The lymph vessels or the blood vessels of the digestive absorb the digested food through the tiny projections in the small intestine called villi.
Why does the digestive system need nutrients?
The blood carries nutrients from the small intestine to all over the body. The villi in the small intestine allow nutrients from digested food to pass through the intestinal wall to the blood vessels. Then the blood carries the nutrients away.
How do osmosis and villi play a role in feeding cells the glucose they need?
Osmosis occurs in the small intestines which contain the villi. There are blood vessels connected to the villi so nutrients/glucose in the small intestines diffuses through the semi-permeable membrane of the cells in the blood vessel.
What is the function of the heart blood blood vessels?
Heart-your heart is to pump blood into the blood vessels.Blood vessels-the blood vessels are used to carry bloodBlood- blood carry nutrients to your whole body.
