Meaning, you can drink all the OJ you want, just because there is more Vitamin C in your system doesn't mean that your body will transport it to your skin or that your skin will even work to take up more of the available Vitamin C from the blood.s I understand it, most of the Vitamin C in our bodies is in the Ascorbic Acid form (top right). If it accepts an electron (as part of being an anti-oxidant) it becomes the Ascorbate Ion.
Cardiovascular System. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and blood vessels (arteries, veins, and capillaries). It delivers oxygen and nutrients to the tissues and carries waste products to the organs responsible for elimination.
The four major functions of the cardiovascular system are: 1. To transport nutrients, gases and waste products around the body. 2. To protect the body from infection and blood loss. 3. To help the body maintain a constant body temperature (âthermoregulationâ). 4.he systemic circuit is made up of the heart and all the remaining arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, and veins in the body. This circuit pumps oxygenated (red) blood from the heart to all the tissues, muscles and organs in the body, to provide them with the nutrients and gases they need in order to function.
