|---|---|
| Synthesis | Production of an organic compound in a living thing |
| Transport | Moving things from one place to another |
| Excretion | The process of getting rid of waste product of metabolism |
| Respiration | Any exchange of gases |
| Nutrition | Organic process by which an organism uses food and liquid for growth |
| Growth | Development of an organism |
| Reproduction | Producing organisms from another organism |
| Response to stimuli | Responding to something |
| Regulation | Homeostasis |
| Transpiration | Evaporation of water from plants |
| Organic compounds | Contains carbon and hydrogen (C6H12O6), carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acid |
| Inorganic compounds | H2O, CO2 |
| Monosaccharide | Monomer (simple sugar)C6H12O6 |
| Disaccharide | Two monosaccharides C12H22O11 |
| Polysaccharide | Many monosaccharides |
| Dehydration Synthesis of Carbs | Monosaccharide + monosaccharide yields disaccharide + H2O |
| Hydrolisis of Carbs | Disaccharide + H2O yields monosaccharide + monosaccharide |
