to the cells of the body. It also transportswaste for removal from the body. - Plasma is called the fluid part of blood.
-

-
There are three types of blood vessels.(i) Artery (ii) Vein (iii) Capillary.

4. Why is transport of materials necessary in a plant or in an animal? Explain.
Answer:
Transport of material is essential for both plant and animal because it is the any way through which nutrients and oxygen are much avialble to all parts of the body. If in any are the transport of the necessary nutrients and oxygen does not reach all parts of the body will be able to survive.

Haemoglobion.
11. Describe the function of the heart.
Answer:
Hearts collects and distributes blood from and to all parts of the body.
12. Why is it necessary to excrete waste products?
Answer:
Waste products are harmful for the body and its presence in large quantity causes toxication. That is why it is necessary to excrete waste products.
13. Draw a diagram of the human excretory system and label the various parts.
Additional Questions With Solutions
11. Transportation in Animals and Plants
Que. – Why is transport of materials necessary in a plant or in an animal?
Ans. – All organisms need food, water and oxygen for survival. The plants absorb food and water through roots. They make food in leaves. Thus the animals also utilised food in their various organs.
