What are the basic life processes?
What are the basic life processes?
The basic life processes include nutrition, respiration, excretion, circulation, and reproduction.
How do living organisms carry out respiration?
How do living organisms carry out respiration?
Living organisms carry out respiration by taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide through the process of cellular respiration.
Why is circulation important for living organisms?
Why is circulation important for living organisms?
Circulation is important for living organisms because it allows for the transportation of nutrients, oxygen, and waste products throughout the body.
Study Notes
Basic Life Processes
- Seven essential processes that occur in all living organisms: movement, sensitivity, nutrition, reproduction, growth and development, respiration, and excretion
Respiration
- Process by which cells generate energy from glucose, releasing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts
- Involves three stages: external respiration (breathing), internal respiration (cellular), and cellular respiration (energy production)
Circulation
- Essential for delivering oxygen and nutrients to cells and removing waste products
- Enables transport of hormones, nutrients, and oxygen to cells, and removal of carbon dioxide and waste products
