Stores water and may contain many substances such as ions nutrients and wastes?

The cell vacuole is responsible for storing water and may also contain various substances such as ions, nutrients, and waste products. It helps maintain cell turgor pressure and regulates the concentration of solutes within the cell.


Osteocytes pass nutrients and wastes back and forth in passageways in the matrix called?

Osteocytes pass nutrients and wastes through canaliculi, which are thin channels in the bone matrix. These canaliculi connect neighboring osteocytes and allow for communication and exchange of substances within the bone tissue.


What is cellular growth movement of nutrients and wastes as a cell size increases?

Cellular growth involves an increase in cell size due to the uptake of nutrients and the removal of wastes. As a cell grows, it requires more nutrients to support its increased metabolic activities, and wastes must be transported out of the cell to maintain proper function. This movement of nutrients and wastes is crucial for the health and function of the cell.


What is a organism that breaks down the nutrients of dead organisms or wastes for food?

A decomposer is an organism that breaks down the nutrients of dead organisms or wastes for food. Examples of decomposers include fungi, bacteria, and some types of insects. They play a crucial role in recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem.


How do single celled organisms exchange nutrients and wastes with their environment?

Single-celled organisms exchange nutrients and wastes through processes like diffusion, osmosis, and active transport. Nutrients are absorbed through the cell membrane from the surrounding environment, while wastes are expelled back out. This exchange occurs based on concentration gradients and the needs of the cell for survival.

Is vacuoles in plant cells?

The vacuole of a plant cell stores water, salts, sugars, proteins, and other nutrients. In some plants it stores the blue, red, and purple pigments that give certain flowers their colors. It also may contain plant wastes that taste bitter to certain insects that keeps them from eating the plant.

What organ of the circulatory system absorbs nutrients and removes wastes?

Wastes and nutrients are carried in the blood and diffuse across the capillary walls.


Nitrogenous wastes is it creatinine or fatty acid or lipid or carbon dioxide or sugar?

Nitrogenous wastes are waste substances which contain nitrogen. Generally these are produced in the liver by the breakdown of unwanted amino acids. Most of the waste (in mammals) is in the form of urea, but smaller amounts of other substances, such as creatinine, are also produced. Carbon dioxide only contains carbon and oxygen. Sugar and fatty acids only contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Some lipids (phospholipids) may contain small amounts of nitrogen.
