Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The small intestine absorbs most of the nutrients in your food, and your circulatory system passes them on to other parts of your body to store or use. Special cells help absorbed nutrients cross the intestinal lining into your bloodstream.

Detailed explanation-2: -At each body part, a network of tiny blood vessels called capillaries connects the very small artery branches to very small veins. The capillaries have very thin walls, and through them, nutrients and oxygen are delivered to the cells. Waste products are brought into the capillaries.

Detailed explanation-3: -The blood carries nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, sugars, fats and proteins around the body. Digested nutrients are absorbed into the blood through capillaries in the small intestine. They are then moved to the cells around the body where they are needed.

Detailed explanation-4: -The circulatory system (cardiovascular system) pumps blood from the heart to the lungs to get oxygen. The heart then sends oxygenated blood through arteries to the rest of the body. The veins carry oxygen-poor blood back to the heart to start the circulation process over.
