Answer:
The organisms that carry out respiration, growth, movement and excretion in b) Animals only.
Explanation:
- Respiration is the exchange of life-sustaining gases, such as oxygen between an animal and its environment.
- Gas exchange occurs by diffusion, moving necessary gases like oxygen into animals and taking away waste gases like carbon dioxide.
- The food that animals eat can be transformed into usable energy for cells or can be used to build new cells, which form tissues like skin and muscle. Etc.
- Animal locomotion, in ethology, is any of a variety of methods that animals use to move from one place to another. Some modes of locomotion are (initially) self-propelled.
- Excretion is the process in a living body that gets rid of wastes after taking the required nutrients and minerals from its consumed food.

The correct answer will be option a, all animals and plants.
Respiration: It is a process through which organisms produce energy.
Since both plants and animals need energy for their life processes both show respiration.
Growth: The growth in animals is determinate that is they only grow till a certain limit whereas that of plants is indeterminate.
Movement: Animals show both locomotion and movement while plants do not show locomotion they only show movement.
Excretion: Different animals have different structures to respire. Plants do not have any specialized structure for respiration, they give out carbon dioxide through stomata.
