Answer to Question 1

A biochemical reaction is a chemical reaction that takes place in the cells of plants and animals. These
chemical reactions include respiration, digestion, and assimilation.

Nutrient refers to a single class of foods or group of foods of the same general chemical composition
that supports animal life. Nutrition refers to the animal receiving a proper and balanced food and water
