Nutrition in Cells - SS1 Biology Lesson Note

Nutrition refers to the process of obtaining and utilizing food substances for growth, maintenance, and energy production in living organisms. It is a fundamental aspect of life and plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and well-being.

Good nutrition involves consuming a balanced diet that provides the necessary nutrients, including macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). These nutrients are essential for various physiological functions, such as providing energy, supporting growth and repair, maintaining the immune system, and ensuring proper organ function.
