How do nutrients, absorbed by the small intestine, travel to the individual cells of the human body? A) The nutrients move directly to the liver and then move through the lymphatic system to the individual body cells.

B) The nutrients are forced into the kidneys, where the nutrients are then dissolved in fluids and sent by the respiratory system to be used by the individual body cells.

C) The body cells send nerve impulses indicating a lack of nutrients to the small intestine, and the small intestine sends the nutrients back through the nervous system to the individual body cells.

D) The nutrients are absorbed by the small intestine, travel into the blood, and move through the circulatory system to the individual body cells.
