1 What is transport? The process by which substances (CO2 , O2 and H2O) move into or out of cells or are distributed within cells. In more complex organisms, a circulatory system may transport substances.

2 Transport in Animals Can you describe transport in an ameba?.

3 Ameba –takes in H20 by osmosis and must be pumped out by contractile vacuoles.

4 Can you describe transport in hydras?

5 Hydra –Materials pass from cell to cell by diffusion through endoderm & ectoderm.

6 Can you describe transport in a grasshopper?

7 In a grasshopper –open circulatory system passes into sinuses from a tubular heart. Blood is colorless, does not carry O2. Sinuses are open cavities between tissues.

8 Can you describe transport in an Earthworm?

9 Earthworm has a closed circulatory system similar to humans
Earthworm has a closed circulatory system similar to humans. Blood contains Hemoglobin which carries O2.

10 5 Aortic arches pump blood to capillaries where diffusion into cells takes place.
