The assimilation of nutrients refers to how cells use energy. Not all cells assimilate nutrients because some are not active.
Cells assimilate nutrients through a process called cellular uptake, where they absorb essential substances from their environment. This occurs primarily via specialized protein channels and transporters in the cell membrane, which facilitate the movement of nutrients like glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids into the cell. Once inside, these nutrients are metabolized to produce energy, synthesize cellular components, and support various biochemical functions crucial for growth and maintenance. Additionally, cells can store excess nutrients for future use, ensuring a steady supply for metabolic processes.
The blood plasma contains the red blood cells which carries the food nutrients and oxygen to all the cells.
Diffusion of nutrients among cells of an organism ceases when all cells have reached an equilibrium where nutrients are evenly distributed and there is no longer a concentration gradient driving the diffusion process. This typically occurs when all cells have sufficient nutrients and there is no need for further transfer.
In sponges, water containing nutrients flows through numerous channels in their body. Specialized cells called choanocytes capture nutrients from the water and pass them onto other cells in the sponge's body for distribution. This allows for the efficient dispersal of nutrients to all cells in the sponge.
circulatory
red blood cells carry oxygen and nutrients to all the cells in your body
The circulatory system works with the digestive system and respiratory system to bring nutrients to all body cells.
cellular nutrients
The circulatory system pumps the blood which carries the nutrients that the cells needs. The circulatory system gets the nutrients from the digestive system.

Yes, all cells have vesicles. Vesicles are what the proteins and nutrients get put in before they are sent out to different organelles.
