Questions and Answers
What is the significance of movement in an organism's life?
Movement allows organisms to find food, escape predators, and reproduce, thereby ensuring their survival.
How does respiration contribute to an organism's metabolism?
Respiration breaks down nutrient molecules to release energy, which is essential for various metabolic processes.
Describe the relationship between movement and stimulus response in organisms.
Movement is often a direct result of an organism's sensitivity to stimuli, allowing for timely responses.

Study Notes
Movement
- Defined as an action by an organism or a part of it, resulting in a shift in position or place.
- Essential for survival, allowing organisms to find food, escape predators, and reproduce.
Respiration
- Involves chemical reactions in cells that degrade nutrient molecules.
- Key for releasing energy necessary for various metabolic processes.
- Supports functions such as growth, maintenance, and reproduction in living beings.
Sensitivity
- Refers to the capability of organisms to detect stimuli from both internal and external environments.
- Enables appropriate responses to changes, enhancing survival chances.
- Involves sensory organs and neurological pathways that process environmental information.
