NUTRITION

All living things feed.

They feed to supply themselves with energy.

Animals do not make their own food.

They feed on other animals and on plants.

 

 

Animals bodies are made up of millions of cells.

Animals feed to help them to grow and repair the cells of the body which need nitrogen.

Nitrogen is found in certain foods such as meat, fish, beans and peas.

.

 


 Most green plants make their own food. They make their food from the simple raw materials carbon dioxide and water.

The green colour (chlorophyll) in the leaves.

together with sunlight allows carbon dioxide and water to be combined.

This process is called

photosythesis.
