How are our bodies maintained?

 Life Processes Introduction The processes, which collectively perform the maintenance of our body system, are known as  life processes . The maintenance processes protect us from damage and break-down; however, to keep these maintenance processes working properly, we need to provide energy to them. Healthy food is the best source of such energy. Nutrition We need energy from outside in order to grow, develop, synthesize protein, and other substances. The ultimate source of energy is varieties of healthy foods. These foods provide us nutrition essential for our survival. Depending upon the sources, nutrition is categorized as Autotrophic Nutrition and Heterotrophic Nutrition. Autotrophic Nutrition The autotrophic nutrition is prepared through the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a process by which autotrophic organisms (green plants) take in substances from the outside and then convert them into stored forms of energy. During the process of photosynthesis, carbon d...
