What organ processes nutrients in the human body?
The small intestine is the primary organ responsible for processing nutrients in the human body. It absorbs nutrients from food through its walls and transfers them into the bloodstream to be circulated throughout the body. Additionally, the liver plays a key role in processing and storing nutrients as well.
Have very thin walls to allow exchange of materials between blood and body cells?
Capillaries have very thin walls to allow for efficient exchange of materials between the blood and body cells. This thinness enables the transfer of gases, nutrients, and waste products through a process called diffusion. The close proximity of blood to body cells in capillaries maximizes the effectiveness of this exchange.
Absorption involves the passage of materials into and out of what organ?
In and out of the bloodstream. I hope this helps.
What is the organ where nutrients is absorbed?
Nutrients are primarily absorbed in the small intestine. The inner walls of the small intestine are lined with tiny, finger-like projections called villi that increase surface area for nutrient absorption. These villi contain specialized cells that transport nutrients into the bloodstream for distribution throughout the body.
Classify to the kingdom level an organism that has organ systems lacks cell walls and ingests food?
The organism belongs to the kingdom Animalia. Organisms in this kingdom have organ systems for carrying out specific functions, lack cell walls, and obtain nutrients by ingesting food.
What is the reason for the food to travel slowly through the intestines?
to allow nutrients to come into contact with the intestinal walls

Where are nutrients absorbed into the blood through the walls of?
It passes through the wall of the digestive system, then into the blood.
Why do villi have thin walls?
Villi have thin walls to facilitate efficient absorption of nutrients from the digested food. The thin walls allow for a close proximity between the nutrients and the blood vessels, which helps in the rapid diffusion of nutrients into the bloodstream.
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.

How do the cells of nonvascular plants get the nutrients they need?
By diffusion of the nutrients through the cell walls and membranes.

In and out of the bloodstream. I hope this helps.
Why are capillaries the site of material exchange between the cells and blood?
The walls of capillaries are very thin allowing the nutrients of cells to diffuse through them. They facilitate the diffusion of nutrients to the body by passing them through their cell walls.
What organ carries nutrients and passes it to the bloodstream?
The small intestine is the organ responsible for absorbing nutrients from digested food and passing them into the bloodstream. This process involves the breakdown of food particles into smaller molecules that can be absorbed through the intestinal walls and transported to various cells in the body for energy and other functions.
How do nutrients carried in the blood reach the cells?
Blood is carried from the heart to various parts of the body in tubes called blood vessels. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels in almost every tissue in the body. Capillaries as so small they only allow one blood cell at a time to go through them. They are the only blood vessels with walls thin enough to allow diffusion. Nutrients in the blood diffuse directly across the thin capillary walls and into the cells of the tissues.
Oxygen and nutrients pass from the blood to the bodys tissues through the thin walls of the?
Capillaries
