A highly branched gastrovascular tract would allow for a higher surface area for food absorption to occur.
Glycogen is a highly branched arrangement of glucose molecules found in liver and skeletal muscle cells. It serves as a storage form of glucose, which can be quickly broken down to provide energy when needed by the body.
Catharanthus plants have fibrous roots, which are thin and highly branched roots that grow close to the soil surface. These roots help the plant absorb water and nutrients efficiently from the surrounding soil.
The olfactory receptors are found in the olfactory epithelium in the upper portion of the nose. The sense is highly sensitive and easily fatigued. Information travels to your brain for storage, interpretation and memory.
Phosphorylation cascades amplify and diversify cellular signals, allowing for a highly specific and regulated response to various stimuli. This signaling mechanism enables rapid and reversible changes in protein activity, leading to precise control of cellular processes.
"Highly evolved" typically refers to a state of advancement or development achieved by a species or system over time through adaptation and natural selection. It often implies complex structures, behaviors, and capabilities that provide a competitive advantage in a specific environment.
Easy exchange of gases They can reach smaller parts Easy diffusion Easy blood flow Easy exchange of material.....

An mylopectin is a variety of highly branched, insoluble form of starch.
because there is less oxygen in water meaning they have to be more efficient to get enough oxygen
Amylopectin
what are the advantage and disadvantage of a highly cohesive work team
To absorb water and nutients from all over the root zone
dendrites
They were highly transportable.
Cnidarians and flatworms have a gastrovascular cavity. Cnidarians, such as the hydra, use their tentacles to move food through their mouth into their gastrovascular cavity. Then the cells lining this cavity excrete digestive enzymes that will start extracellular digestion and break the prey into smaller pieces. Any undigested remnants of the prey are expelled through the mouth opening. Like cnidarians, flatworms have a gastrovascular cavity with a single opening, but the cavity itself is highly folded. These folds greatly increase the surface area and extend throughout the body, bringing nutrients within the reach of all cells.The gastrovascular cavity of cnidarians and flatworms allows them to digest larger prey than they could with intracellular digestion. However, the effectiveness of a gastrovascular cavity in supplying the animal with nutrients is limited. Because there is only one opening to the external environment through which prey is taken in and remnants are expelled, the animals have to complete digestion of the first prey and expel its remnants before taking in another prey. With the evolution of a second opening in the digestive system, the digestive system became a digestive tract, or alimentary canal, making it a one-way system between mouth and anus. Food could now be taken in and processed continuously, providing the animal with more nutrients. Most animals-including vertebrates, arthropods, mollusks, round worms and earthworms-have this form of digestive tract.A one-way digestive tract is efficient because it allows the food to pass through a series of specialized regions. Such regions may be specialized for protein, fat, or carbohydrate digestion, making each step more efficient. Other regions may be used for food storage or for preparing the food for chemical digestion by physically grinding it into smaller pieces, which exposes more surface area to the action of digestive enzymes. These specialized regions eventually evolved into organs as parts of a complex digestive organ system. However, because nutrient dispersal, by the digestive system itself to all cells of the body, was no longer feasible with such a specialized digestive system (and animals became larger and bulkier) a separate cardiovascular system evolved to serve that function.
