How do the cells of the epidermis receive the nutrients and oxygen they need?
All epithelial tissue requires oxygen and nutrients to be delivered from the deeper tissues. In the case of the epidermis, this deeper tissue is the DERMIS. Are close enough to the blood supply in the dermis to get the adequate oxygen and nutrients for survival.
What are the two systems in the body that share the function of ensuring an adequate supply of oxygen to the body's tissue?
The repiratory and circulatory systems
What nutrients build cells and tissue?
What nutrients build cells and tissue?
How does epithelium obtain nutrients and oxygen and get rid of wastes?
Through diffusion from underlying connective tissue which have abundant blood vessels.
In plants what type of tissue is responsible for transporting water and nutrients?
Water and nutrients are transported by vascular tissue called xylem.
What body system delivers oxygen and nutrients to the tissues?
The circulatory or cardiovascular system delivers oxygen and nutrients to the tissues. Blood is the tissue that transports oxygen and nutrients, and the arteries are the vessels that carry blood loaded with oxygen and nutrients to the body tissues.
What type of blood does the coronary artery deliver to the heart?
The coronary artery delivers oxygenated blood to the heart. The coronary arteries supply the heart muscle with oxygen and nutrients.
How is the blood unlike any other tissue in the body?
Delivers Nutrients and Removes Waste
What tissue is responsible for transporting oxygen and nutrients through the body?
No one tissue does this, it is the cardiovascular (heart and blood) system that transports oxygen and other nutrients.
What is the tissue that carries oxygen and nutrients to and from the body cells?
The liquid tissue is called BLOOD
Skin is supplied with oxygen and nutrients by the?
Underlying connective tissue

All epithelial tissue requires oxygen and nutrients to be delivered from the deeper tissues. In the case of the epidermis, this deeper tissue is the DERMIS. Are close enough to the blood supply in the dermis to get the adequate oxygen and nutrients for survival.
Cardiac muscle tissue is supplied with nutrients and oxygen by which part of the human transport system?
Cardiac muscle tissue is supplied with nutrients and oxygen by the coronary arteries in a process called coronary circulation.
What resources does the blood bring to nervous tissue?
It brings both oxygen and nutrients to all types of tissue.
What makes blood a tissue?
Blood is a specialized bodily fluid that delivers necessary substances to the body's cells-such as nutrients and oxygen-and transports waste products away from those same cells. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood
Definition of circulatory systems?
circulatory system is a large organism involving flow of fluid through the tissue and organs allowing the transport and exchange of substances such as nutrients,oxygen and waste products
What does the blood bring to the tissues?
It brings both oxygen and nutrients to all types of tissue.
