Concept explainers

Modes of Nutrition

It is a biological process of providing or obtaining food that is necessary for growth and health. It includes many physiological processes - absorption, ingestion, assimilation, catabolism, excretion, etc. In biology, the science that deals with nutrition's physiological and chemical processes are called "nutritional science."

Question

(A) light as an energy source and CO2 as a carbon source.
(B) light as an energy source and methane as a carbon source.
(C) N2 as an energy source and CO2 as a carbon source.
(D) CO2 as both an energy source and a carbon source.
