HOPE IT HELPS ✌✌✌
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Eliminate Photosynthesize and Transpire as both are found only in plants only.
Eliminate Movement as Plants are fixed and do not move from place to place as do animals but parts of plant may respond to stimulus as irritability/sensitivity like phototropism,etc.
Between Feeding and Respiration we need to understand what the mind of the examiner is in asking such question.
This is my opinion here: Respiration happens both in plants and animals. All living organisms including micro-organisms must respire whether aerobic or anaerobic to generate energy no matter how many ATPs are produced to power life systems. Respiration is the breakdown of food substances to liberate energy for life processes.
Feeding is the simply the ingestion of food and is one part of nutrition. Nutrition is feeding(ingestion), digestion, absorption, assimilation, egestion. Not all plants that ingest food except carnivorous or insectivorous plants like pitcher plants that traps its prey and digest them. PLANTS ALSO ABSORB NUTRIENTS FROM THE SOIL SUCH AS NITRATE, PHOSPHATE, ETC.
Nutrition in plants have two types: chemosynthetic and photosynthetic and both are called Autotrophic mode of nutrition.
Photosynthesis is the process whereby green plants MANUFACTURE/SYNTHESIZE/PRODUCE (NOT FEED/INGEST) their own Food Substances (Organic compounds) using CO2 from the atmosphere and water molecules being absorbed from the soil, chlorophyll and enzymes in the presence of sunlight. The plant here does not feed.
Therefore not all living organisms feed/ingest. MY ANSWER IS "B"
