Animals get energy for growth and repair from?

In food, there are many macro molecules. Among them, the main contribution towards the energy is given by the carbohydrates and fats. For the development, growth and repair our cell needs proteins and other micro nutrients like vitamins and minerals.


What is a substance in food used by the body to promote normal growth maintenance and repair?

There are no chemicals as such, but there are certain bodies known as organelles that are responsible for all metabolic activities in the cell. These organelles are common for both plants and animals, only for the exception of few organelles that differ. The prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells have differently organized organelles. Out of the both the organelles of the prokaryotic cell has the more primitive kind of structure. About chemicals you could talk about ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) which is liberated by the 'mitochondria'.


How do our bodies absorb nutrients from the food we eat?

Our bodies absorb nutrients from the food we eat through a process called digestion. When we eat, our digestive system breaks down the food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the intestines. These nutrients are then transported through the bloodstream to different parts of the body where they are used for energy, growth, and repair.


Is is true that Meiosis is a process that is important in the growth and repair and replacement of human tissues like the skin blood and lining of the gut?

Actually, meiosis is not directly involved in growth, repair, or replacement of human tissues. Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs in the formation of gametes (sperm and egg cells) and contributes to genetic diversity. The growth and repair of human tissues are primarily regulated by mitosis, another type of cell division that results in the production of identical daughter cells for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues.


What are the nutrients that are used to build and repair body parts called?

The nutrients used to build and repair body parts are called macronutrients, which include proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. These nutrients provide the essential building blocks needed for growth, maintenance, and repair of tissues in the body.
