Question 1 Report
An organism takes in food, breaks it down and uses the energy released to keep warm. Which two life processes are described?
Two processes are described. Nutrition is the taking in of food materials, which the organism does first; respiration is the chemical breakdown of those nutrient molecules in cells to release energy, which is then used to keep warm. So the pair is nutrition and respiration. It is not movement or excretion (removing waste), nor sensitivity or reproduction, and note that using the released energy for warmth is a use of respiration, not a separate life process here.
