In the case of multi-cellular organisms such as human beings, cells receive food by way of the blood, which carries nutrients to them, which they then absorb through their cell membranes.

Do cells obtain from nutrients in food?
Yes, they do
What plant cells carry food?
All plant cells contain some nutrients, however, the cells of the seed, fruit and root tend to be used for food storage. The nutrients are transported around the plant by phloem cells in the vasculature.
How do cells get energy to perform their necessary functions?
Cells get energy by taking in nutrients from food.
How do cells that exist 6 cm below the skin's surface receive their nutrients from outside the body?
They don't receive nutrients from outside the body but from very small capillaries or even by simple diffusion if they are rather close to the skin.
Why does the food you eat need to be changed for use by your cell?
Cells can only absorb liquid and nutrients.
Why do you receive plasma?
It carries nutrients from digested food yo all your cells
Where do epidermal cells get their nutrients?
Epidermal cells receive nutrients and oxygen from the blood vessels in the dermis.
what part of the blood cells carry food nutrients and oxygen to all cells?
The blood plasma contains the red blood cells which carries the food nutrients and oxygen to all the cells.
Do cells obtain from nutrients in food?
Yes, they do
Body cells receive oxygen and nutrients from food delivered by?
Blood does. It carries oxygen from the lungs with which you breath fresh air in. Then blood goes to the heart and is sent to the whole body with oxygen! Oxygen support the cells', and the body's life!

How do cells get energy to perform their necessary functions?
Cells get energy by taking in nutrients from food.
What cell is designed to filter nutrients from food?
Squarish cells
How do the cells receive the things they need?
Cells receive nutrients from the blood, in the case of fauna, or sap in the case of flora. Nutrients are in high concentration in the blood or sap and as it passes the cells the nutrients will move from the blood, to where they are in low concentration, to the cell, assuming one has the omega 3--which is absent from CAFO protein--in their diet necessary for healthy cell walls.
When nutrients are transported from intestinal epithelial cells to vascular system what organ is first to receive them?
Liver
How does the digested food reach the body cells?
Nutrients are carried by the blood.
What food you eat must be broken down by this system into nutrients your body cells can use?
The digestive system breaks food down into useful nutrients.
