The circulatory system brings blood containing nutrients and oxygen to the periosteum, which covers the bone. The periosteum is a thin membrane that contains nerves and blood vessels. Its main function is to provide nourishment to the bone. From the periosteum, nutrients and oxybgen go through the perforating canals to the central canal, and then to the canaliculi. The osteocyte nearest the central canal passes nutrients to the next osteocyte with arm-like extensions that extend into the canaliculi to the next osteocyte. At the terminal end of each extension, gap junctions connect the cytoplasm of each osteocyte so that nutrients/wastes can be passed between cells to/from the central canal.
Periosteum>Perforating canals>Central Canals>Canaliculus>Lancunae>Osteocytes
Periosteum-> Perforating Canals-> Central canels-> Canaliculus-> Lancunae-> Osteocytes
periosteum => perforating canals => central canals => canaliculus => lacuna => osteocyte
What's the route taken by nutrients though a bone, starting with the periosteum and ending with an osteocyte in a lacuna? The path is: Periosteum, Perforating Canals, Central Canals, Canaliculi, Lancunae, Osteocytes
AnswerThe Periosteum serves as an attachment point for muscles and bones through tendons and ligaments. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Or, Inner layer can breakdown and build bone cells. Not necessarily its "function". It's a fibrous membrane covering (of bone), attached by fibers that happen to enter into bone, "Sharpey's fibers"; allowing nerves, and blood / lymphatic vessels to pass though it and then into bone through nutrient foramina. The periosteum covers bone and provides nourishment to the bone through the blood vessels and nerves contained within it.
They get nutrients through their umbilical cords.
Water and nutrients are transported through bryophytes using the xylem. The process of translocation is used for this purpose in plants.
Nutrients and oxygen diffuse through the capillaries, due to diffusion.

They get nutrients through their umbilical cords.
They absorb their nutrients through their cell wall
A rose gets its nutrients from the soil. The rose draws the nutrients through the roots that are in the soil.
The negative correlation to the reciprocal of the amount of nutrients to the amount of life being produced (Yearly average). This can also be connected to the nutrients being given off by the vast amount of fossils that are starting to go through their dating cycles.
Nutrients pass through the capillaries (a type of blood vessel) in the small intestine.
through cells
Nutrients are able to be absorbed through the skin. About 60 percent of materials, natural or chemical, will be absorbed through the skin.
It passes through the wall of the digestive system, then into the blood.
By diffusion of the nutrients through the cell walls and membranes.
