10 Questions
Match the following terms with their descriptions:
Energy = Needed for maintenance processes to prevent damage and break-down Nutrition = Process of transferring energy from food outside the body to inside Respiration = Process of acquiring oxygen from outside and using it to break-down food sources Oxidising-reducing reactions = Common chemical means used to break-down molecules
Match the following statements with the correct explanation:
Body growth = Requires additional raw material from outside the organism Carbon-based molecules = Most food sources are carbon-based due to life depending on them on earth Environmental control = Organisms cannot control the energy sources in their environment Chemical reactions = Necessary for converting energy sources into usable forms for cellular needs and growth
Match the following characteristics with their significance:
Complexity of carbon sources = Determines the type of nutritional processes different organisms can use Outside energy sources = Varied due to the lack of control by individual organisms Uniform source of energy = Needed for maintaining living structures and supporting growth Molecular movements = Require a common source of energy derived from external sources
Match the following processes with their roles:
Breaking down or building up energy sources in the body = Conversion to a uniform source of energy for cellular needs Acquiring oxygen for cellular needs = Part of the respiration process in organisms Using oxygen in food break-down = Involves oxidising-reducing reactions in many organisms Chemical reactions in the body = Essential for breaking down molecules and supporting growth
Match the following functionalities with their importance:
Maintaining living structures = Requires various molecular movements fueled by a common energy source Supporting body growth = Necessitates acquisition of additional raw material from outside Conversion of energy sources = Needed to provide usable forms for cellular functions and growth Use of oxygen in metabolism = Critical for breaking down food sources into energy for cellular needs
Match the following with their functions in multi-cellular organisms:
Specialised tissues = Uptake of food and oxygen Transportation system = Carrying food and oxygen Excretion = Discarding waste by-products outside the body Simple diffusion = Not meeting the requirements of all cells
Match the following with their roles in a multi-cellular organism's body design:
Specialised tissues = Performing specific functions Transportation system = Moving substances between different parts of the body Simple diffusion = Not sufficient for all cells Excretion = Removing harmful waste by-products
Match the following with their importance in multi-cellular organisms:
Specialised tissues = Uptake of food and oxygen Transportation system = Carrying nutrients to all body parts Excretion = Getting rid of harmful waste products Simple diffusion = Limited effectiveness for all cells
Match the following with their necessity in complex body designs:
Specialised tissues = Required for specific body functions Transportation system = Needed to distribute essential substances Excretion = Essential for removing harmful by-products Simple diffusion = Inadequate for all cells' needs
Match the following with their functions in an organism's growth:
Specialised tissues = Uptake of essential nutrients Transportation system = Distribution of necessary substances Excretion = Elimination of waste materials Simple diffusion = Insufficient for larger body sizes
Explore the concept of nutrition and energy transfer in organisms, as they acquire energy and raw materials from outside sources for maintenance and growth. Understand how organisms obtain and process food to sustain life.
