9.2 Maintaining a Balance Contextual Outline Multicellular organisms have specialized organ systems that are adapted for the uptake and transport of essential nutrients from the environment‚ the utilisation or production of energy and the removal of waste products arising from cellular activities. The basis of healthy body functioning in all organisms is the health of their cells. The physical and chemical factors of the environment surrounding these cells must

Xylem (conducts water and minerals; includes dead cells called tracheids) 2. Phloem (distributes sugars‚ amino acids‚ other organic products; consists of living cells) Leaves: Microphylls- leaves w/single veins Megaphylls- leaves w/ highly branched vascular system Seeds - Reduced gametophytes protected in ovules and pollen grains

In biological processes‚ the immediate energy source is often in the form adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The nucleotide ATP maintains both catabolic and anabolic reactions. An example of
