Explanation:

(a)the process by which cells use oxygen to break down sugar and obtain energy. respiration.

(b)the process by which green plants turn carbon dioxide and water into food using energy from sunlight

(c)Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Water is necessary for plants but only a small amount of water taken up by the roots is used for growth and metabolism.

(d)any of the smallest tubes in the body that carry blood

(e)Diffusion is the net movement of anything (for example, atoms, ions, molecules, energy) from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration

(1)the gradual passing of a liquid through a thin layer of material a membrane

(g)the movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane into a region of higher concentration, assisted by enzymes and requiring energy.

(h)Passive transport is a type of membrane transport that does not require energy to move substances across cell membranes. Instead of using cellular energy, like active transport, passive transport relies on the second law of thermodynamics to drive the movement of substances across cell membranes.

Thank you

Answer:

a . respiration is the process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by combining Oxygen and glucose resulting in the release of carbon dioxide water and ATP energy.

b. plants are are autotrophs which means they produce their own food they use the process of photosynthesis to transform water sunlight and carbon dioxide into Oxygen and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel.

c. transpiration is a process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts such as leaves stems and flowers.

d. capillary action is defined as the the spontaneous flow of a liquid into a narrow tube or porous material. this movement does not require the force of gravity to occur. in fact it after X in of positive to gravity capillary action sometimes called capillary motion capillarity aur viklang.

e. diffusion is a physical process that refers to the net movement of molecules from a reason of high concentration to one of lower concentration.

f. Osmosis is the process by which the molecules of a solvent passed from a solution of low concentration to the solution of higher concentration through a semipermeable membrane.

g . active transport is the process of moving molecules across a cellular membrane through the use of cellular energy.

h . passive transport is the biological process of movements of the biochemical across the cell membranes and tissues.
