  • Do we need nutrition to repair damage tissues?
    Yes
  • This compound includes the presence of carbons.
    Organic Compund
  • This is the serves as the energy source/ reserve of the body.
    Carbohydrates
  • This exist as fats, waxes, and oils, which is essential for the body to preserve temperature.
    Lipids
  • These are made up of amino acids, and is a component of the muscle and other tissues.
    Proteins
  • This is a kind of protein, that serves as a catalyst in chemical processes.

    Enzymes
  • This carries genetic information in living organisms.
    Nucleic Acid
  • These compounds involves the absence of carbon and hydrogen.
    Inorganic compounds
  • This is the most abundant inorganic compound that can be found in the bodies living organism in about 65-95 %.
    Water
  • This serves as a medium of food transportation, and other minerals inside the body.
    Water
  • This serves as the CARBON SUPPLIER in things made by living organisms. They can be found in soils, dissolved in water, or salt in the seawater.
    Carbon Dioxide
  • This is a naturally occurring element that all living things release when they breath out.
    Carbon Dioxide
  • This is the process of ingesting and digesting food in order to provide energy, repair tissues, and is essential for body development.
    Nutrition
  • This is one of the life functions of an organism that involves the movement of water and other materials in and out of body tissues and cells of organisms. It involves the process of absorption and secretion.
    Transport
  • This involves 2 kinds of processes, building and destroying.
    Metabolism
  • This involves the process of using small molecules and nutrients to build larger complex molecules, that has its own functions for the body.
    Anabolism
  • This involves the process of using larger complex molecules and breaking them down to get energy and other materials, therefore paving the way for anabolism.
    Catabolism
  • This is the ability of the body to maintain balance or stability.
    Homeostasis
  • This is the ability of small molecules to pass through cell membranes. Some organisms use this for exchange of gases.
    Absorption
  • This is the process of expelling waste products in the body.
    Excretion
  • The process in which the body reproduces either sexually or asexually.
    Reproduction
  • Give me some kinds of asexual reproduction.
    1.Fission
    2. Spore formulation
    3. Budding
  • What are the two kinds of sexual reproduction?
    1.External fertilization
    2. Internal fertilization
