Hey mate!!!

Here is your answer...

Nutrition : Nutrition is the science that interprets the interaction of nutrients.

Nutrients : A nutrient is a substance use by an organism to survive.

Proteins : A substance that has amino acid, compounds of carbon, hydrogen,oxygen and nitrogen.

Cellular respiration : The Chemical process that generates most of the energy in cell.

Aerobic respiration : Respiration that takes place in presence of oxygen .

Glycolysis : Sequence of reaction for breakdown of glucose..

Hope it helps..

Please mark it as BRAINLIEST..

Answer:

a. Nutrition:

  • Food is needed by all living organisms for growth and repair.
  • Variety of substances are taken as food from single cellular organisms like Amoeba to the complex multicellular organisms like the human body.
  • The method of taking food by organism is called nutrition.

b. Nutrients:

  • A nutrient is a substance which is used by an organism to survive, grow, and reproduction.
  • Living organisms obtained nutrients from the food.
  • Carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals, etc., are the nutrients obtained from food.

c. Proteins:

  • Proteins are the large complex molecules formed by bonding together many amino acids by peptide bonds.
  • Examples, hair, nail muscles are proteins.

d. Cellular respiration:

  • Cellular respiration is the process by which cells get their energy in the form of ATP from oxidation of food.
  • Cellular respiration takes place in presence or in absence of oxygen.

e. Aerobic respiration:

  • It is the process of producing cellular energy by the oxidation of food such as glucose in the presence of oxygen.
  • It is a multistep process that produces 38 ATP.

f. Glycolysis:

  • Glycolysis is the first step in cellular respiration.
  • It takes place in the cytoplasm of a cell.
  • In this process 1 molecule of glucose is converted into 2 molecules of pyruvic acid or pyruvate.
