Question

Question #16:
A living organism, X, can make its own food, get rid of toxic materials and detect and respond 10
stimuli.
What other four processes must organism X carry out to stay alive?
A excretion, growth, movement, sensitivity
B excretion, growth, nutrition, respiration
c growth, movement, reproduction, respiration
d movement, reproduction, respiration, sensitivity​

Answer 1

c) growth, movement, reproduction, respiration

• Because the living organism, X, can produce its own food, it does have a source of nutrition.
• Food consumed by organism X provides valuable energy and nutrients.
• The living organism, X, is said to be capable of eliminating toxic materials.
• So, this denotes that the organism has the ability to excrete to get rid of unwanted materials.
• X as a living organism is said to have the ability to detect and respond to stimuli and so this denotes that the organism possesses the property of sensitivity.
• Therefore other four processes that organism X must perform in order to survive are: growth, movement, reproduction, and respiration.
