Digestion- breakdown of food substances into simpler forms Absorption- passage of substances through membranes and into the body circulation- movement of substances in bodily fluids Assimilation- changing of absorbed substances into chemically different forms. Excretion- removal of wastes produced by metabolic reactions Movement- change in position; motion Responsiveness- reaction to change growth- increase in body size without changing shape Reproduction- production of new organisms and cells respiration- obtaining oxygen; removing carbon dioxide; releasing energy from foods. Differentiation- unspecialized to specialized.
