Capillaries allow Glucose and oxygen to move out of the blood in the capillaries into interstitial fluid and into the cells. Fluid is exchanged between capillary blood and interstitial fluid.

Oxygen is passed to cells purely by diffusion.

Some nutrients are also passed by diffusion, but most must be actively transported across cell walls by special transport proteins.

What is a liquid that carries oxygen nutrients and waste through the body?

Blood delivers oxygen and nutrients to the body cells, and it removes waste and takes it to the kidneys where it is filtered from the blood and passed to the bladder. From there, it is passed out of the body through urinating.


By what process are nutrients and oxygen oxidized in your cells?

The process by which nutrients and oxygen are oxidized in cells is cellular respiration. It involves the oxidation of nutrients usually by oxygen.


Nutrients and oxygen how are they passed from plasma to body cells?

The nutrients and O do not come from the plasma to the body cells. They came from the red blood cells that deliver them (or so I thought). They then enter the capillaries and give the nutrients and O to the other cells and get the waste products like CO2.
