Life Processes in Living Organisms
Description: Transportation and root pressure move water and nutrients upward through xylem using osmotic and pressure forces.
Description: Excretion in humans removes metabolic wastes through organs like kidneys, maintaining internal chemical balance.
Description: Plants move in response to stimuli like light and gravity, showing tropic and nastic movements.
Description: Neurons transmit signals; sensory neurons detect stimuli, motor neurons respond, interneurons connect within the CNS.
Description: The brain controls actions; cerebrum for thinking, cerebellum for balance, medulla regulates heartbeat and breathing.
Description: Endocrine glands secrete hormones; pituitary controls others, thyroid regulates metabolism, adrenal manages stress response.
