CHAPTER IN A NUTSHELL

All living organisms need food.Living organisms need food for:

l growth l energy l replacement and repair of damaged body parts l protection against diseases

Many different types of food materials are present in nature.Food materials can be made of one, two or many ingredients.Plants are the main source of food.Food is also obtained from animals.Almost all plant parts are edible.

Adequately cooked food is easily consumed and digested by our body.Sprouted seeds are rich in many nutrients.Based on food habits, animals can be divided into three categories:

l Herbivores: Animals which eat only plants are called herbivores or herbivorous animals. l Carnivores:

animals. l Omnivores:

or omnivorous animals.Human beings are omnivores.

IMPORTANT TERMS AND DEFINITIONS

Organisms: All living beings such as bacteria, fungi, plants, animals, human beings, etc., are called organisms.Food: Substances from which a living organism gets nutrients for growth, repair and replacement of damaged body parts, protection against diseases and which provide energy constitute food. Edible: Sprouts: When seeds are kept moist for a day or two, they germinate and small baby plants grow out of them. These germinated seeds are called sprouts.

Autotrophs: Living organisms which produce their own food are called autotrophs.Heterotrophs: Living organisms which depend on other organisms for food are called heterotrophs.

1.1 Food Variety

We eat different kinds of food at different times of the day. The different kinds of food items that we eat, constitute what is called food variety. According to their taste, habits, life style and availability of food items, different people eat different kinds of food. A particular food item served as part of a meal is called a dish. The food items or substances, which are combined to make a dish are called ingredients. For example, raw rice and water are the ingredients required for preparing boiled rice, but to prepare vegetable curry, we need ingredients such as vegetables, spices, oil, salt, water, etc.
