The seven life processes are movement, respiration, sensitivity, growth, nutrition, excretion, and reproduction. Movement allows organisms to get away from danger or find food. Respiration involves breathing in oxygen and out carbon dioxide. Sensitivity involves the five senses which help organisms survive. Growth is important for animals to develop and plants to grow from seeds. Nutrition provides vitamins and minerals to keep organisms healthy. Excretion removes waste from organisms. Reproduction is essential for species to continue.
