What else can I help you with?
Which organelle in cells stores food?
Vacuoles in plant cells and storage granules in animal cells store food by storing nutrients and other essential molecules. These organelles can release stored nutrients when the cell needs energy or building blocks for growth and repair.
What carries nutrients to the body's cells?
The bloodstream carries nutrients to the body's cells. Nutrients from the food we eat are absorbed in the digestive system and then transported via the bloodstream to cells throughout the body, providing them with the necessary energy and building blocks for proper functioning.
Can fungi eat food or engulf food?
Fungi absorb nutrients from their surroundings through a process called extracellular digestion. They release enzymes to break down organic matter outside of their cells, then absorb the digested nutrients into their cells. So, while fungi do not "eat" food in the traditional sense, they do acquire nutrients by breaking down and absorbing organic matter.
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!
What is the function of the lining cell in the small intestine?
The lining cells in the small intestine are responsible for absorbing nutrients from digested food. These cells have microvilli that increase surface area for absorption and contain transporters to move nutrients into the bloodstream.
How is digested food carried to your cells?
The digested food is in form of glucose which is broken down in mitochondria to release energy.
What is the process that takes digested food through the small intestine wall?
Absorption is the process that takes nutrients through the small intestine wall. These nutrients then enter the circulatory system, which carries the nutrients to all body cells.
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.
Where do nutrients enter the body?
The mouth, you eat food with them in.
Do cells obtain from nutrients in food?
Yes, they do
Does swallowed food mingle and mix with the organelles?
No, swallowed food does not mingle or mix with organelles. Once food is ingested, it is broken down in the digestive system into smaller molecules, such as nutrients, which are then absorbed into the bloodstream. These nutrients are transported to cells where they can enter the cytoplasm and interact with organelles, but the actual food itself does not directly mix with them.
Nutrients from digested food move from the digestive system directly into the...?
Nutrients from digested food move from the digestive system directly into the bloodstream. Specifically, they are absorbed through the walls of the small intestine, where they enter capillaries and are transported to the liver for processing. From the liver, these nutrients are distributed to cells throughout the body to be used for energy, growth, and repair.
Where does food enter the blood vessesles?
usually nutrients enter the blood vessels through the small intestines
What cell is designed to filter nutrients from food?
Squarish cells
What organ system is responsible for the distribution of food nutrients to the different bparts of the body?
The circulatory system is responsible for the distribution of food nutrients to different parts of the body. After nutrients are absorbed in the digestive system, they enter the bloodstream, where the circulatory system transports them to cells and tissues. This system includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood, ensuring that essential nutrients reach their destinations efficiently.
How does food water and oxygen enter cells?
By osmosis
How does digestive system get to the Cells?
The digestive system breaks down food into smaller molecules through mechanical and chemical processes. Nutrients absorbed in the intestines enter the bloodstream, which transports them to cells throughout the body. Cells then utilize these nutrients for energy, growth, and repair. This process ensures that the body receives the essential components needed for proper functioning.
