Every cell is a semi-independent living organism. As such, it needs to eat, excrete, drink, breathe, and reproduce.
Food (glucose and proteins), water, and oxygen are brought into each cell through the blood. Waste products and carbon dioxide are carried out, again through the blood. Without these things, the cell, being stuck in place and unable to go out and forage, will die.

Why is every cell in your body not like every other cell?
Every cell in our body is specialized to carry out a specific function, and since our body is so complicated, there are a lot of functions that need to be carried out. Because of this, our cells are extremely diverse, from brain and nerve cells that transmit information, to red blood cells that carry oxygen to other cells, to white blood cells that help fight off diseases.
Why the red blood cell substitute would need to mimic those characteristics?
red blood cells carry oxygen to you heart as well as the rest of the body
Why does respiration happens in every cell?
Every cell need to respire in order to produce the energy it needs
What does every cell in the body need to power its activities?
All cells must do work to stay alive and maintain their cellular environment. The energy needed for cell work comes from the bonds of ATP.
Function of a red blood cell is?
The main function of a red blood cell is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and organs, and to carry carbon dioxide back to the lungs to be exhaled. This process is vital for sustaining life and providing cells with the oxygen they need to produce energy.
Do you need minerals in your body?
Every part of the body uses minerals. Iron, for example, is used not only in the blood but in every cell as an oxygen transport mechanism. Calcium, sodium, and potassium are similarly widespread.
What does every cell in the body need to live?
It needs food.
Are there body parts that need the heart?
Yes every part of the body needs blood.
Does the gut need oxygen?
Every cell in your body needs oxygen.
Why does a plant need to conduct water?
Water needs to reach every cell in the plant- in a similar way to our blood needing to reach every cell in our body. capillary action draws water up the plant stem, and into the smaller channels in the leafs.
Why does every cell in your body need access to blood?
Every cell is a semi-independent living organism. As such, it needs to eat, excrete, drink, breathe, and reproduce. Food (glucose and proteins), water, and oxygen are brought into each cell through the blood. Waste products and carbon dioxide are carried out, again through the blood. Without these things, the cell, being stuck in place and unable to go out and forage, will die.
Why do need a circulatory system in the body?
so that the blood which carries oxygen can reach every part of our body.
Why do you need many red blood cell in the body?
Cause red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the body
What does white blood do?
Red blood cells absorb oxygen from air in the lungs and transport it to every cell (Basic unit of structure) in the body. In other terms, it gives the body oxygen they need from the lungs and gives it to every cell. That's what it basically does. White blood cells fight off infections. They attack and destroy viruses and bacteria that enter the body. I'm only 11! In the 5th grade!!
Why does every part of the body need oxygen?
Yes it is delivered through the blood though.
What is the function or work of the circulatory system?
the ciculatory system is where blood in our body is transported around the body giving our cell the oxygen they need.
Is red blood cell specialised cell?
Yes, it has it specific duties. Mostly to carry oxygen and glucose around the body to organs which need it.
