◼ INTRODUCTION LiFE
Earth happens to be the only known planet having a life. There are beings who live, die and become part of nature again. The living organism can be differentiated from the inanimate entities on various parameters of life processes
◼ LIFE PROCESS
- Maintenance of living organism is essential even if they are moving, resting or even sleeping.
- The processes which together perform the function of maintenance of ‘life’ are called as life processes.
- Nutrition, respiration, circulation, excretion are examples of essential life processes.
- lIn unicellular organisms, all these processes are carried out by that single cell.
- In multicellular organisms, well-developed systems are present to carry out the processes
◼ NUTRTION
The process of acquiring food that is needed for nourishment and sustenance of the organism is called nutrition
- There are two main modes of nutrition, autotrophic and heterotrophic.
- Heterotrophic nutrition has subtypes as holozoic, saprophytic and parasitic nutrition
◼ AUTOTROPHIC NUTRITION
- If an organism can nourish itself by making its own food using sunlight or chemicals such mode of nutrition is called as autotrophic nutrition.
- Plants photosynthesize (use light energy) and are called photoautotrophs.
- Few bacteria use chemicals to derive energy and are called chemoautotrophs
◼ PHOTOSYNTHESIS
- Photosynthesis is an important process by which food is formed.
- The plants make food using sunlight and water, which provides nourishment to other organism and themselves.
- Chlorophyll present in the green parts absorbs light energy.
- This light energy is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.
- Hydrogen is then used to reduce carbon dioxide into carbohydrates, typically glucose.
- Chlorophyll is essential for photosynthesis and stomata to facilitate intake of carbon dioxide
◼ STOMA
- Stomata are pores on the leaves that help in exchange of gases.
- They are mostly found on the underside of the leaf.
- Each stoma is guarded by guard cells, which control the opening and closing of the pore.
- The water content of the guard cells is responsible for their function
Saprophytic Nutrition
- Saprophytic NutritionSome organism feed on dead and decaying organic matter. This mode of nutrition is called saprophytic nutrition.
- The food is partially digested outside the body and then it is absorbed.
- E.g. Fungi are saprophytes
