What are the essential processes of Life Process?

Nutrition, Respiration, Transportation, Excretion

What is the process of photosynthesis in plants?

Conversion of CO2 and H2O into glucose

Food intake, digestion, absorption, assimilation, excretion

Changes shape for inhaling and exhaling

Oxygen enters blood, carbon dioxide exits

Life Process involves key functions for survival, including Nutrition (self-sufficient or dependent on others), Respiration (breathing and cellular energy release), Transportation (blood vessels and heart function), and Excretion (waste removal).
The detailed processes of human nutrition from food intake to waste removal, the distinctions between aerobic and anaerobic respiration, and the role of blood vessels, heart chambers, and plant vascular tissues are crucial aspects covered in the revised chapter on Life Process introduced by Prashant Bhaiya.

Prashant Bhaiya introduces the next chapter of rapid revision, focusing on Life Process after covering Chemical Reaction.
Life Process encompasses essential processes for survival: Nutrition, Respiration, Transportation, and Excretion.
Nutrition is defined as obtaining and utilizing food for energy, with two types: Autotrophic (self-sufficient) and Heterotrophic (dependent on others).
Heterotrophic nutrition includes Holozoic (solid food digestion), Saprophytic (feeding on dead matter externally), and Parasitic (deriving nutrition without killing the host).
Autotrophic plants perform photosynthesis, converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose using chlorophyll and sunlight.
Guard cells control stomata opening for gas exchange in plants, regulating water intake and release.
Holozoic nutrition, exemplified by amoeba, involves ingestion, digestion, absorption, assimilation, and excretion.
Human nutrition involves a detailed process from food intake, saliva breakdown, stomach digestion, liver bile production, pancreas enzyme secretion, small intestine absorption, and large intestine waste removal.
Respiration distinguishes between breathing (inhaling and exhaling) and the cellular process of burning food with oxygen to release energy.
Aerobic respiration with oxygen produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy, while anaerobic respiration without oxygen forms ethanol or lactic acid.

When breathing, the diaphragm changes shape: flat when inhaling, curved when exhaling.
Gas exchange occurs in the alveoli, where oxygen enters the blood and carbon dioxide exits.
Hemoglobin in the blood loves oxygen and facilitates this gas exchange process.
Transportation in the body involves blood, platelets for clotting, plasma, and blood cells like RBCs and WBCs.
Blood vessels include arteries (carry blood away from the heart), veins (carry blood towards the heart), and capillaries (connect arteries and veins).
Arteries mostly carry oxygenated blood, while veins carry deoxygenated blood, with exceptions like the pulmonary artery and vein.
Veins have valves to prevent backflow of blood, located only in veins.
The heart pumps blood through four chambers, ensuring double circulation in the body.
Double circulation prevents mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood, enhancing blood pumping efficiency.
In plants, xylem transports water and minerals unidirectionally, while phloem transports food bidirectionally.

Enzymes pepsin and trypsin are secreted in the options A, B, C, or D.
The chapter is completely revised, and the next chapter should be taken care of.
