Life Process

2. - The regulation of an organism's internal environment to maintain stable, constant conditions necessary for life processes.
6. Nutrition - The mode of nutrition in which organisms depend on others for food, either by ingesting or absorbing nutrients.
7. - The process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. It produces oxygen as a by-product.
10. - The process by which organisms take in food and utilize it to get energy, for growth, and for maintenance of body functions.
13. Nutrition - The mode of nutrition in which organisms make their own food from simple substances like carbon dioxide and water, using energy from sunlight, e.g., photosynthesis in plants.
15. - The process of removing toxic substances and other waste products from the body to maintain homeostasis.
16. - The process by which the body utilizes the absorbed food molecules for energy, growth, and cell repair.
17. - All chemical reactions that occur within an organism to maintain life, including anabolism (building up) and catabolism (breaking down).
18. Respiration - A form of respiration that uses oxygen to break down food molecules to release energy.
19. System - The network of nerve cells and fibers that transmits nerve impulses between parts of the body, integral to controlling bodily functions and responding to external stimuli.

1. - The movement of materials such as nutrients, gases, and wastes within an organism, particularly through the circulatory system in animals or the vascular system in plants.
3. - The process by which food is broken down mechanically and chemically in the alimentary canal into substances that can be absorbed into the body.
4. Respiration - A form of respiration that occurs in the absence of oxygen where energy is extracted from food substances through chemical reactions, producing lactic acid or ethanol and carbon dioxide.
5. - The movement of blood through the heart and blood vessels, distributing nutrients and oxygen to cells and removing carbon dioxide and other wastes.
8. System - Also known as the urinary system, it is responsible for the elimination of wastes and excess substances through the production and excretion of urine.
9. - The process by which nutrients from digested food are absorbed through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream.
11. - The biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by combining oxygen with glucose to release carbon dioxide, water, and energy.
12. - The removal of undigested waste material from the body.
14. System (Endocrine System) - The system in the body that uses hormones to control and coordinate metabolism, growth and development, tissue function, and mood.
20. - Biological catalysts that speed up biochemical reactions in living organisms, crucial for processes such as digestion and metabolism.
