THERE ARE FIVE STEPS IN HOLOZOIC NUTRITION:

  1. INGESTION:INTAKE OF COMPLEX SUBSTANCES THROUGH TEMPORARY OR PERMANENT MOUTH.
  2. DIGESTION:REDUCTION OF THE COMPLEX SUBSTANCES INTO SIMPLER MOLECULES.
  3. ABSORPTION: ABSORBING THE DIGESTED FOOD
  4. ASSIMILATION:USING THE DIGESTION FOOD FOR GROWTH,REPAIR, MAINTENANCE ETC.
  5. EGESTION: ELIMINATION OF THE UNDIGESTED FOOD.
