Transportation in Animals

Transportation in Animals: 

In unicellular animals such as amoeba and paramecium, no special transport system is required. Every part of the organism gets nutrients and oxygen directly through cell diffusion. In hydra, water transports food and oxygen to all parts of the body and takes wastes away from the different organs for excretion.

In multicellular organisms, the transportation is done by a specialized system known as the circulatory system. It consists of the heart, arteries, veins and capillaries. Blood is the medium for transport of all the necessary materials to different parts of the body.
