Where do plants get the minerals they need?
There are 14 essential plant nutrients. Carbon and oxygen are obtained from the atmosphere, and the other nutrients are absorbed from the soil.
Can Oxygen be absorbed through the digestive system?
No the digestive system cannot absorb oxygen. The digestive system absorbs nutrients, eliminates waste, break down foods, and more.
What happens when the size of body of organism increases and the body design becomes more complex?
Because the more complex an organism become the more surface area to volume ratio.This means that unlike simple organism(like insects) who rely on diffusion for transport of oxygen and nutrients is readily available due to their excellent surface area to volume ratio. However if an organism has a bad surface area to volume ratio(larger organisms) they require a more efficient flow of oxygen and nutrients throughout their body.
Delivery of oxygen and nutrients?
Blood cells deliver oxygen and nutrients through the rest of the body. Blood is pumped through the lungs to collect oxygen.
Which organ delivers oxygen and nutrients to the body?
Blood carries the oxygen and nutrients to all the parts of our bodies.
In the human body oxygen is absorbed by the lungs and nutrients are absorbed by small intestine. in a single celled organism this absorption diretectly involves the?
Cell Membrane
Why does the organism need oxygen and nutrients?

What do organism need to carry on their life?
oxygen, nutrients, water, usually shelter
Do the organism need any special adaptation to survive?
They need oxygen, nutrients, and the ability to adjust to temperature change.
What are the roles of the circulatory system?
the role of the circulatory system is to transport oxygen and nutrients to all the cells in that one organism
Can Oxygen be absorbed through the digestive system?
No the digestive system cannot absorb oxygen. The digestive system absorbs nutrients, eliminates waste, break down foods, and more.
What is a chemical substance that an organism requires to live?
Nutrient. If working on word wise, the answers are 1. chemosynthesis 2. ? 3. nutrient 4. producers 5. binome 6. biogeochemical cycle
What is the main function of the circulatory system in a multicellular organism?
For non-insects, its the transportation of oxygen and nutrients to the cells and wastes away from the cells.
How do plants get their nutrientes?
disolved mineral nutrients are absorbed by the roots from the soil. carbon dioxide is absorbed directly from the air through the stomata in the leaves. oxygen is absorbed through the root system from pore spaces in the soil as well as a small amount through the stomata in the leaf.
How are unicellular organisms and multicelllular organisms alike?
Cells do the same, or very similar things, whether they are part of a unicellular organism or a multicellular organism; they have a metabolism, they consume nutrients and oxygen, they have waste products, etc.
What returns oxygen-poor blood to the heart?
Yes, the blood from the lungs is rich in oxygen. Since you breathe in oxygen and nutrients through your nose/mouth to the lungs, the oxygen and nutrients are absorbed in the lungs and go through the blood stream into the heart
