Life Processes
The basic function performed by living organism to maintain their life are called life processes.
The basic life processes are:
1)Respiration
The process of acquiring oxygen from outside the body and to use it in the process of break down of food sources for cellular need is called respiration.
2)Nutrition

5)Control and coordination
It is the process which helps the living organism to receive information from the surrounding and behave accordingly.
6)Growth
The permanent increase in size of the organism.
7)Movement and locomotion
In this process,the organism either move from one place to another or move its body parts while remaining at the same place.
8)Reproduction
The making of more organism from the existing ones.
