Question
Chapter 56, Problem 3.9A
Summary Introduction
To fill:
The correct term in the given blank.
Introduction:
The living organisms are considered living because there are many non-living processes being carried out in the body to make the body a living body. The vital processes that occur in our body are on a mission to maintain homeostasis in the body.
