Thursday/Friday – How do nutrients, absorbed by the small intestine, travel to the individual cells of
the human body?
A The nutrients are absorbed from the small intestine into the blood and move through the circulatory
system to the body cells.
B The nutrients move from the small intestine directly to the liver and then move through the lymphatic
