Answer 1

I think its D maintenance of life

Answer 2

Answer:

"Normal functioning of only a few organs" is NOT an "accurate description" of what "nutrition" is responsible for .

Nutrition is the process of intake of food for "growth, production of energy and maintenance of life". It reaches our body in the following stages: ingestion, digestion, absorption, transport, assimilation, and excretion. Improper nutrition can cause deficiency in the body and can lead to diseases and malnutrition. A well balanced diet with "regular physical activity" is called proper nutrition.

Hence, option (A) doesn't suits the definition of nutrition.
