Question 1 Report
An earthworm pulls itself away quickly when a bright torch is shone onto its skin. This change of position in response to a stimulus involves which TWO characteristics of living organisms?
Answer Details
Two life processes are shown together here. Sensitivity is detecting and responding to a stimulus, and the earthworm detects the bright light; movement is an action causing a change of position, and the worm pulls itself away. So the correct pairing is movement and sensitivity. It is not growth or reproduction, which concern increasing in mass and making new organisms, nor excretion, nutrition, respiration or egestion, none of which is happening in this quick escape.
