The functions of a root are absorption, storage and support. Its principal function is the absorption of nutriment and to this end it generally has branches of rootlets covered with root-hairs which largely increase the absorbing surface. These root-hairs are of DigitizedMicrosoft ...

Nutritional requirements, including nutritional interactions with other constituents of food (including other metals when the interactions are nutritionally or toxicologically relevant) in respect of, for instance, absorption, storage in the body, and elimination. 

Under normal circumstances, the body is efficient at maintaining the required balance among the intake, absorption, storage, and excretion of calcium. 

Metabolism—The absorption, storage, and excretion of the bioflavonoids are very similar to vitamin C. They are readily absorbed into the bloodstream from the upper part of the small intestine. Excessive amounts are excreted primarily in the urine.

Anemia and Poor Growth Children with xerophthalmia and night blind mothers tend to be anemic relative to peers without eye disease. VA-supplemented trials often show improvement in indicators of iron status, including reductions in anemia. Mechanisms involved in this interaction are not clear but may involve enhanced iron absorption, storage, and transport as well as direct effects on hematopoiesis in the presence of adequate iron stores.
