Life processes- when we are dealing with life processes, the 1st process we should deal with is Nutrition.
1. Nutrition- obtaining and processing food.
- There are two types of nutrition
a. Autotrophs
1. Self feeders- Example- green plants. They make their own food from simple (inorganic) materials.
2. They carry out food by photosynthesis- light- they make something using light.
- Chemosynthesis- carried out by things that live deep in the ocean- using chemicals to make something.
b. Heterotrophs
1. Other feeders- animals. They obtain preformed food from others.
2. They carry out food by
a. Ingest- take the food in
b. Digest- to brake down the food
c. Egest- eliminating unprocessed waste.
2. Transport- absorb and circulate (distribute)
3. Respiration- release of energy from food. (Oxidation- burning of food.)
4. Excretion- removal of processed (metabolic) wastes. What body part has this role? The kidneys.
5. Synthesis- root syn- together. Small molecules are put together to form/make larger ones.
6. Growth- organism increase in size.
7. Regulation- control and coordination- Communication is included.
8. Reproduction- production of new individuals. Why was reproduction written last as it has anything to do with the others? Why did scientists include this? Reproduction is not necessary for the individual. It is necessary for the preservation of the species
B. Metabolism- all of the life processes- life activities.
C. Homeostasis- living organisms must remain in homeostasis. If they don't, they are ill or they are dead. Homeostasis- same stationary condition- steady state- organisms need to maintain a steady state despite an ever-changing internal and external environment. How do we maintain balance? How does the body know? The nervous system is most related to this- sweat.
What else can I help you with?
Can an animal do all seven life processes?
Yes, animals can perform all seven life processes: movement, respiration, sensitivity, growth, reproduction, excretion, and nutrition. Each process is essential for the survival and functioning of an animal.
Do lions have 9 lives?
No, lions do not have nine lives. Like all animals, they have one life just like humans do. The concept of animals having multiple lives is a myth and not based on reality.
What type of scientist studies plants and animals?
A biologist studies plants and animals, specifically focusing on their life processes, interactions, and ecosystems. Within biology, subfields such as botany specialize in plants, while zoology focuses on animals. These scientists conduct research to understand biodiversity, conservation, and the relationships between organisms and their environments.
How do animals get CO2?
Co2 is not needed for animal life, in fact it is poisonous. They breathe it out as a by product from using energy. However, plants must have co2, and emit oxygen as a by product.
What is another name for animal life?
A Study Of An Animal Life Is Called Zoology Mainly Comprises With Land Animals.
What carries out all life processes are they animals?
Some animals can. I think....... :)
How do animals get the energy they need or life processes?
animals get there energy by eating other animals
What gas do animals need to carry out life processes?
Animals need oxygen to carry out life processes. Plants need carbon dioxide. Some animals and plants can use either if they need to.
Is it true that animals that live exclusively on a diet of other animals are unable to use carbohydrates to fuel their life processes?
yes I think so
What specific topics do you study in a biology class?
cells human body life processes in plants and animals
What mammalogists study?
A mammalogist studies the origins, behavior diseases, genetics, and life processes of animals and wildlife.
What is a living thing that carries out seven different life processes?
There are seven life processes that tell us that animals and plants are alive. To help us remember them use: Mrs Nerg. The letters in it stand for the life processes - movement, reproduction, sensitivity, nutrition, excretion, respiration and growth.
Animals and man exhibit life through the physical medium of what?
Animals and humans exhibit life through the physical medium of cells. Cells are the fundamental units of life that carry out the processes necessary for survival and reproduction. They provide structure, function, and organization to all living organisms.
How plants and animals are interdependent to each other?
Plants produce oxygen, which animals use to breathe, from carbon dioxide, which the plants use to carry out their life processes.
What living thing carries out the seven life processes?
All living things, including plants, animals, and microorganisms, carry out the seven life processes which are: nutrition, respiration, movement, excretion, growth, reproduction, and sensitivity. These processes are essential for the survival and functioning of living organisms.
True false animals that live exclusively by eating other animals are unable to use carbohydrates to fuel their life processes?
False. All animals, regardless of their primary diet, are able to use carbohydrates as a source of energy to fuel their life processes. Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, which is a universal source of energy for all living organisms.
Can an animal do all seven life processes?
Yes, animals can perform all seven life processes: movement, respiration, sensitivity, growth, reproduction, excretion, and nutrition. Each process is essential for the survival and functioning of an animal.
