• taking in food

  ingest
• breaking of food

  digest
• absorb across cell membrane

  absorb
• passes out undigested foods

  eliminate
• only plant eater

  herbivores
• only meat eater

  carnivores
• both plant and meat eater

  omnivores
• snail

  chewing
• mosquito

  sucking
• ants

  scrapping
• brain or control center of the cell

  nucleus
• produce and assemble cell ribosomes

  nucleolus
• acts as a fence around the cell

  cell membrane
• acts as the powerhouse of the cell

  mitochondria
• manufacturing department of the cell

  ribosomes
• waste disposal and recycling center of the cell

  lysosome
• types of endoplasmic reticulum that produce and process proteins

  rough ER
• the delivery service of the cell

  golgi apparatus
• facilitates photosynthesis

  chloroplast
• responsible for organizing cell divisions

  centrosome
• one of the most important food sources for animals, when it is stored, then its potential as a source of energy

  carbohydrates
• is a process of energy conversions where carbohydrates are broken down into glucose and ATP

  cellular respiration
• occur when glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen

  aerobic respiration
• is a process where glucose is broken down into pyruvic acids

  glycolysis
• is the process where electrons are combined with another molecules from ATP

  oxidative phosphorylation
• occurs in the absence of oxygen and glucose down to ATP

  anaerobic respiration
• flowers have male part that produce a sticky powder called pollen

  stamen
• the top of the pistil is often sticky

  stigma
• a mature ripened ovary that usually contains seed

  fruit
• is the innermost boundary around the seeds

  endocarp
• occurs in species with limited male organism, egg develops on its own

  parthenogenesis
• an organism divides itself to form a new individual with approximately its same size

  fission
• an individual organism will regenerate its broken body part and the amputated part becomes a new organism

  regeneration
• a twig from one tree is joined to a stem from another tree of the save lead

  grafting
• a bud or small individual organisms grows on a part of a parent organism

  budding
• a new plant can be grown by cutting off parts of the stem with two or more nodes

  cutting
• the layer develops new roots and leaves, and eventually grows into a new plant

  layering
• producing offspring either sexually or asexually

  reproduction
• an irreversible increase in size

  growth
• obtaining food to provide energy and the materials needed for growth

  nutrition
