The correct answer is option B) their cells are in direct contact with the environment.

By simple animals we mean unicellular organisms or organisms which have very low grade of organisation. Such organisms do not have three germ layers they either have 2 germ layers or do not have germ layers at all that means that they are comprised of only one cell. Since, they do not have many germ layers in their body their cells are in direct contact with the environment. Their cells can directly obtain nutrients form the environment through the process of diffusion. But, in complex organisms the cells do not obtain nutrients directly from the environment. They have specialized organs and organ systems to accomplish a particular task which increases their efficiency. They have well organized circulatory system which supplies nutrients to the cells/tissues of the body.

Describe the path an egg from the ovary to the outside of the female body
Elis [28]
The ovaries produce the egg cells, called the ova or oocytes. The oocytes are then transported to the fallopian tube where fertilization by a sperm may occur. The fertilized egg then moves to the uterus, where the uterine lining has thickened in response to the normal hormones of the reproductive cycle.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Cell division is the mechanism by which DNA is passed from one generation of cells to the next and ultimately, from parent organisms to their offspring. During meiosis, the cells needed for sexual reproduction divide to produce new cells called gametes.

Relate the surface area of a cell to the transport of materials.
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

If the size of a cell increases it will be more difficult (all other things being equal) for diffusion to transport materials out of the cell. Therefore, less of the cell's interior will be able to come in contact with the cell's surface. If less of it comes in contact, less of it can cross the cell membrane.

hope this helps and please mark me as brainliest please
