Why do humans need transport system?
We need nutrients and oxygen to be supplied to our cells at a very fast rate as our cells need a lot of energy to keep us alive. Therefore we must have an efficient transport system to transport nutrients and oxygen to the billions of cells in our body. The transport system in man is known as the circulatory system.
What is the main function of the cardiovascular system for a dog?
To transport nutrients and oxygen to the cells of the body.
What are the roles of the circulatory system?
the role of the circulatory system is to transport oxygen and nutrients to all the cells in that one organism
Does the integumentary system transport nutrients to the cells?
No, the circulatory system transports nutrients to cells. The integumentary system protects your body.
Why is circulatory system known as body's transport system?
The circulatory system not only transports oxygen to and CO2 from cells, but also transports nutrients and hormones around the body.
Which three organ systems interact to obtain process and transport oxygen and nutrients to all of the body's cells?
The respiratory system obtains oxygen from the air and delivers it to the circulatory system. The circulatory system then transports oxygen and nutrients throughout the body via the blood vessels. The digestive system processes nutrients from food, which are then absorbed into the bloodstream by the circulatory system for delivery to cells.
What system transport nutrients to cells?
The circulatory system, case closed.
What system functions to transport nutrients and oxygen to the tissue and to remove waste products?
The circulatory system functions to transport nutrients and oxygen to tissues and cells throughout the body. It also removes waste products, such as carbon dioxide, from tissues back to the lungs for elimination. This system is comprised of the heart, blood vessels, and blood.
Which human body system most directly delivers nutrients to cells throughout the body?
The circulatory system, specifically the cardiovascular system, is responsible for delivering nutrients to cells throughout the body. This system uses blood vessels, such as arteries and capillaries, to transport oxygen and nutrients to cells and remove waste products.
What organ system transport nutrients to all the cells?
circulatory system does.
Why is it necessary to have a transport system inside the body of living organisms?
Diffusion (of oxygen etc) takes place across a maximum distance of about 1 cm. Therefore, large organisms need a transport system to carry the oxygen to all cells - and remove the waste (carbon dioxide). The transport system is also used to take cells nutrients - the products of digestion. If this did not occur, only the cells of the lower digestive tract, where nutrient absorption takes place, would get the nutrients they need. Without these nutrients throughout the body, the cells would die. The transport system is also very important in the immune response. It allows white blood cells to get to the site of infection etc. It also is often used to take hormones to their target organs e.g. epinephrine (adrenaline).
Which body system supplies nutrients and oxygen to the cells?
