Nutrition

How does the organism break down and absorb food? Autotrophic Heterotrophic: Earthworms eat their way through dirt, so they are detritivores. Heterotrophic: Some are vegetarian, some are carnivorous, and some are decomposers. Heterotrophic: These are usually vegetarian as tadpoles and carnivores as adults. Heterotrophic

Circulatory System (Transport)

How does the organism get what it needs to the cells (open, closed, diffusion only)? Diffusion only Closed with 5 aortic arches (hearts Open circulatory system with a heart pumping hemolymph Closed with 3-chambered heart Closed with 4-chambered heart

Respiratory System
