What fluid carries nutrients to the cells?
Blood is the fluid that carries nutrients, oxygen, hormones, and other substances to the cells of the body. It also helps remove waste products from cells to be eliminated from the body.
Epidermal cells are supplied with nutrients from what blood cells?
Cells in the blood do not provide nutrients to the other cells of the body. The nutrients are in the blood plasma (liquid). These nutrient diffuse through the vessel wall and travel to the bodies cells in the interstitial fluid (the fluid around individual cells). The epidermis does not have blood vessel running through it, so the nutrient must pass from the dermis layer of cells.
The small intestine is to nutrient absorption as the blood is to nutrient?
transportation. The small intestine is responsible for absorbing nutrients from digested food, while the blood circulates throughout the body to deliver these nutrients to cells for energy and other biological functions.
What part of the blood carries minerals vitamins sugar and other foods to the bodys cells?
The plasma carries minerals, vitamins, sugars, and other foods to the body's cells.
What system delivers food and oxygen to body cells and carries carbon dioxide and other waste products away from body cells?
The circulatory system delivers food and oxygen to body cells through the bloodstream, which is pumped by the heart. It also carries carbon dioxide and other waste products away from body cells to be eliminated from the body.
What is the function of Blood supply?
The blood supply carries oxygen (bound to the hemoglobin molecule in the red blood cell) to all cells of the body. The blood supply also carries other nutrients to the cells, and also contains blood cells involved in fighting disease, immune reactions and clotting.
What liquid takes oxygen and glucose from the blood to other body cells?
The liquid that transports oxygen and glucose from the blood to other body cells is called plasma. Plasma is the liquid component of blood that carries nutrients, hormones, and waste products to and from cells in the body.
Do body cells that surround the capillaries usually have high nutrient concetration?
The body cells surrounding the capillary usually have low concentrations of oxygen and nutrients, but high concentrations of carbon dioxide and other waste products.
After blood arrives to working muscles in the capillaries what happens next?
Blood brings oxygen and nutrients to the muscle cells, it carries away carbon dioxide, other waste materials and excess heat from the cells
What does blood carries the other organ in the body?
oxygen and nutrients
What is something that carries waste it carries needed substances to the cells and it fights disease?
The circulatory system, through the bloodstream, carries waste products away from cells to be eliminated by the kidneys and other organs, while also transporting nutrients and oxygen to cells. Additionally, the immune system functions to fight off pathogens and diseases within the body.
What does the blood do in the cardiovascular system?
The blood in the cardiovascular system carries gases, hormones, nutrients, and wastes. Oxygen, nutrients, and certain hormones are carried to the cells; and carbon dioxide, wastes, and certain hormones are carried away from the cells. Hormones are not nutrients or wastes. They are chemical messengers that are secreted by certain cells and carried to other parts of the body where they will have an effect, which depends on the hormone.
