Introduction - All living creatures need food. The food is consumed so that energy is obtained. The energy is utilised by the body for various purposes like locomotion, conduction of impulses, repair of damaged tissues, building of cell materials, etc. The substance that is used to release energy i..

This takes place in aquatic microorganisms such as bacteria, protozoans, diatoms, etc. Microphagous animals are sponges, corals, tadpoles, larvae of mosquitoes, etc. These animals have specialized structures for steering the water currents such as pseudopodia, cilia, flagella, ..

Introduction - Materials formed in one part of the body have to be taken up to other parts where they are needed or to be got rid of. This is an essential requirement of most animals. This function is performed by the body fluids. The movement of the body fluids i.e. blood and l..

. From an acellular level of organisation to cellular level and then tissue level, organ level and organ system level of organization can be recognised. In addition, one can recognise the gradual appearance of distinct features such as symmetry, body wall and body cavity. There are further improvem..

Animal Cell Plant Cell Usually smaller in size. Usually larger in size. Cell wall absent. Cellulose in any form is absent. Cell wall made up of cellulose is present. Cytoplasm is denser, more granular and occupies most of the space in the cell. Cytoplasm is pu..

Nitrogen is an essential constituent of animal and plant matter as it forms proteins, which are the building blocks of life. The ultimate source of nitrogen is atmospheric nitrogen but neither plants nor animals are capable of assimilating free nitrogen..

These are a group of filamentous bacteria having a plant body resembling the fungal mycelia. They grow in the form of radiating colonies. They grow abundantly in water and soil rich in decaying organic matter. They are gram positive bacteria which constitute a major component of..
