Hello friend

Here's your answer

Nutrition is a process of taking in food or taking in of nutrients (carbohydrates,proteins,fats, vitamins,minerals)

Why is nutrition required??

• To maintain body temperature

• For body repair and growth

• To perform all the metabolic activities

• For energy production


The mode of acquiring food depends and varies from organism to organism. There are

• Autotrophs, which prepare their own food with the help of sunlight☀. They indirectly or directly provide food or nutrients to most of the organisms

• Heterotrophs which are dependent on Autotrophs or on other organisms for food

✓ Herbivores: which eat only plant products
✓ Carnivores : which eat only animal flesh/meat
✓ Omnivores: which depend on both plant and animals for food

•Decomposers, are the ones which acquire their nutrition by decomposing / breaking down the substances. They are also called as scavengers of the earth.

Hope it helps!!
