Life Processes of Organisms
|
processes organisms must carry on to survive
|
|
The 5 Life Processes
|
Photosynthesis
Chemosynthesis Cellular Respiration Excretion Transport |
|
Nutrition
|
materials needed for growth, energy, & life processes
provided by food |
|
Ingestion
|
food is taken into the blood (physical)
|
|
Digestion
|
breaking down food into usable forms (physical & chemical)
|
|
Photosynthesis
|
takes place in leaves of plants
water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight are used to make glucose, oxygen & water H2O+CO2+energy(sun) = glucose (sugar)+O2+H2O waste product: oxygen |
|
Plants
|
producers
|
|
Producer
|
make their own food
|
|
Chemosynthesis
|
organisms use chemicals instead of sunlight to make food
example: chemisynthetic bacteria deep in the ocean |
|
Cellular Respiration
|
food, oxygen, and water broken down to cellular energy (ATP) carbon dioxide & water
glucose (suger)+O2+H2O = energy for the cell (ATP) +CO2+H2O waste products: carbon dioxide & water |
|
Excretion
|
removal of waste products from cells
|
