Movement, Respiration, Sensitivity, Growth, Reproduction, Excretion and Nutrition
1 of 8
Movement
an action by an organism or part of an organism causing a change of position or place
2 of 8
Respiration
the chemical reactions that break down nutrient molecules in living cells to release energy for metabolism
3 of 8
Sensitivity
the ability to detect or sense stimuli in the internal or external environment and to make appropriate responses
4 of 8
Growth
a permanent increase in size and dry mass by an increase in cell number or cell size or both
5 of 8
Reproduction
the processes that make more of the same kind of organism
6 of 8
Excretion
the removal from organisms of toxic materials, the waste products of metabolism (chemical reactions in cells including respiration) and substances in excess of requirements
7 of 8
Nutrition
the taking in of materials for energy, growth and development; plants require light, carbon dioxide, water and ions; animals need organic compounds, ions and usually need water
