The process by which living organisms obtain and use nutrients to sustain life.

The process of taking in nutrients and using them for growth and energy.

Organisms that make their own food from simple inorganic substances.

Organisms that get their food from other organisms.

The process by which green plants convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.

Tiny openings on the surface of leaves that allow for gaseous exchange.

A type of heterotrophic nutrition where organisms obtain nutrients from dead organic matter.

The process of breaking down food to release energy.

A type of nutrition where an organism obtains food from a living host without killing it.

A type of nutrition where an organism ingests complex organic food, digests it, absorbs nutrients, and excretes waste.

Temporary finger-like projections of an amoeba's cell surface used to engulf food.

A membrane-bound sac formed by an amoeba to digest food.

The process of breaking down complex food molecules into simpler ones.

The movement of digested nutrients from the food vacuole into the amoeba's cytoplasm.

The process of removing undigested food waste from the amoeba's cell.

Tiny hair-like structures covering the surface of a paramoecium that help it move and take in food.

The process by which organisms take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide.

Tiny air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs.

The respiratory pigment found in red blood cells that carries oxygen.

The process of increasing the volume of the chest cavity to draw air into the lungs.

The process of decreasing the volume of the chest cavity to push air out of the lungs.

The fluid connective tissue that transports oxygen, nutrients, and waste products throughout the body.

The liquid component of blood that contains dissolved substances like proteins and nutrients.

Small, irregular-shaped cells in blood that help clot the blood.

The part of the kidney responsible for filtering blood and producing urine.

A cup-shaped structure at the beginning of a nephron that encloses a bundle of blood capillaries called the glomerulus.

A cluster of blood capillaries found within Bowman's capsule, where filtration of blood takes place.

The process of removing waste products and excess water from the blood.

The process of reabsorbing useful substances (like glucose and water) back into the bloodstream from the nephron.

Blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body.

Blood vessels that carry oxygen-poor blood from the body back to the heart.

Tiny blood vessels that connect arteries to veins; they allow gas and nutrient exchange with body cells.

The muscular organ that pumps blood throughout the body.

The upper chambers of the heart that receive blood.

The lower chambers of the heart that pump blood out to the lungs and the rest of the body.

The process of blood circulating twice through the heart in one complete cycle.

The fluid in the lymphatic system, crucial for transporting fluids and fighting infections.

The movement of water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves in a plant.

This process is the movement of food (sugars) throughout a plant, driven by energy from ATP.

This is the force that pushes water from the roots into the xylem, driven by the concentration gradient of ions in the soil and root.

The loss of water vapor from the leaves, creating a pulling force that draws water up the xylem.

The process of removing toxic waste products from the body of an organism.

The bean-shaped organs responsible for filtering blood and producing urine.

The tubes that collect urine from the kidneys and transport it to the bladder.

The organ where urine is stored before being expelled from the body.
