Why don't protists (eg. sponges) need circulatory systems? Question 12 options: None of their cells are in contact with their externl environment so that waste can not diffuse out of their bodies. All of their cells are in contact with their external environment so that nutrients and oygen can diffuse into cells. This is a misleading question because all animals have circulatory systems. They are such simple animals that they don't need oxygen.
