  1. 5. Reproduction is making new living things (offspring) so that a species can continue to exist, like when plants make seeds or animals have babies.
  2. 6. Movement is when a living organism moves itself (or part of itself) from one place to another.
  3. 7. Nutrition is the process of taking in food and using it for energy, growth, and repair, such as animals eating plants or other animals, and plants making their own food.

  1. 1. Sensitivity is the ability to notice and respond to changes in the environment, such as plants growing toward light or animals running away from danger.
  2. 2. Excretion is getting rid of waste products (like carbon dioxide or urine) that living things produce but don’t need, to keep their bodies healthy.
  3. 3. Respiration is the process of breaking down food to release energy that living things need to move, grow, and stay alive (not the same as breathing).
  4. 4. Growth is when living things get bigger in size or increase in the number of cells, like a seed turning into a tree or a baby animal becoming an adult.
  5. 8. An organism is something that is living, or was once living but is now dead.
