Why do multi cellular organisms need a transport system
Biology
ScanSolve AI Answer
Multicellular organisms need a transport system to move essential substances like nutrients, oxygen, and hormones to all their cells, and to remove waste products like carbon dioxide and urea. Because they have a low surface area to volume ratio, diffusion alone is too slow to meet the needs of all cells. The transport system ensures that every cell receives what it needs and gets rid of waste efficiently, maintaining homeostasis.
