What to Focus On

  • Life processes are maintenance functions essential for survival
  • They continue even when organisms appear inactive
  • Energy is required for all life processes

  • Nutrition provides energy and materials for growth and maintenance
  • Autotrophs make their own food, heterotrophs consume other organisms
  • Photosynthesis converts light energy into chemical energy

  • Alimentary canal is a long tube with specialized regions
  • Mechanical and chemical digestion occur simultaneously
  • Enzymes break down complex food into simple molecules

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Photosynthesis only occurs during the day, so plants don't respire during the day

Digestion starts in the stomach with pepsin

Aerobic respiration produces more ATP because oxygen is a fuel
