Study Notes

Movement & Life

We associate movement with life because living organisms often exhibit visible and purposeful movements.
Movements caused by growth are gradual and permanent, while movements not connected with growth are temporary, purposeful, and directional.
A cat running could be a movement not connected with growth. Running is temporary, purposeful (to catch prey or escape danger) and directional.
A movement not connected with growth is a temporary directional movement with a specific purpose.
A movement caused by growth is an irreversible and continuous process that contributes to a permanent change in size or shape.
The purpose of movement in living organisms depends on the specific organism and its circumstances, enabling them to adapt to their environment, obtain food or shelter, and reproduce.
Movements not connected with growth are temporary, directional, purposeful, and often visible.
If a seedling's growth is stopped, it will not be able to grow bigger and may eventually die.
