            Introduction

            Living  organisms require  energy in order to accomplish various
            metabolic activities. The main source of energy for organisms in all
            ecosystems is the sun. Organisms obtain their food in different ways.
            In this chapter, you will learn about physiology of photosynthesis
            which includes mechanism of light reaction and dark reaction in C 3
            and C  plants. You will also carry out anatomical and physiological
                  4
            investigations  related  to digestive  system in mammals.  The
            competences developed will enable you to improve human health
            and agricultural practices.
