      Substrate-Feeders
      Filter-Feeders
      Fluid-Feeders
      Bulk-Feeders
      Ram-Feeding
    • this type of feeding mechanisms is when The organism lives on or inside its food source and feeds through the soft tissues
      Substrate-Feeders
    • this type of feeding mechanisms is when The organism filters small food particles or organisms
      Filter-Feeders
    • _____ Feeders obtains nutrients from particles suspended in water
      Filter-Feeders
    • Filter-feeders are also known as _____
      Suspension Feeders
    • this type of feeding mechanism is when The organism feeds on fluids such as animal blood and nectar in plants
      Fluid-Feeders
    • this type of feeding mechanism is when organisms eat large pieces of food by using body parts like claws, tentacles, and teeth
      Bulk-feeders
    • ____ Feeders eat relatively large amounts of foods
      Bulk-Feeders
    • this type of feeding mechanism is when an organism is Ingesting prey via surrounding fluids
      Ram-Feeding
    • ____ feeding engulfs preys in water
      Ram-Feeding
    • what are the 5 processes of nutrition in animals
      Ingestion

      Assimilation
      Egestion
    • _____ the process of taking in the food. Also known as food consumption
      Ingestion
    • ______ is when The larger food particles are broken down into smaller, water-soluble particles
      Digestion
    • _____ is when The digested food is absorbed into the bloodstream through the intestinal wall
      Absorption
