Question

Why is transport of materials necessary in a plant or in an animal? Explain

Answer 1

Answer:

Transport of materials is necessary for plants or animals because due to it the nutrients and oxygen are made available to all the parts of the body. If the transport of necessary nutrients and oxygen does not take place in the body, the body will not be able to survive.

Explanation:

All living organisms need to transport materials from one part of the body to another. All these materials like food water, oxygen, carbohydrates and hormones etc., are essential for the organisms to survive. Therefore, transportation of materials is essential.

Answer 2

Answer:-

Transport of materials is necessary in both plants and animals

because: -

a. Each and every cell needs a constant supply of oxygen and food

(water and nutrients in plants).

b. Also, waste produced during respiration and other life processes

are to be excreted otherwise they will cause harm to the organism.

Transport is necessary in multicellular organisms so that each and

every cell can get food and oxygen and can expel out waste.
