Do all living things need food?

 We learnt that all living things need food and it is essential it is to animals and to us. We know that plants make their own food through the process of photosynthesis. Animals do depend on plants and other animals for their food. Food gives organisms the energy needed by them to grow. Organisms need this energy to carry out other life processes that go on inside them.

Do all living beings grow?

We must have grown taller during these years. We might not realise it, but we are growing all the time and in few more years we will become an adult. Young ones of animals grow into adults. We surely notice that pups grow into adults. A chicken hatches from an egg then grows into a hen or a cock. Plants also grow. Look around us and we will see a few plants of a particular type. Some of them are very small and young, some of them are grown. They all have different stages of growth.
