'Procurement of nutrients is known as nutrition. Nutrition is of two types. a) Autotrophic nutrition and b)Heterotrophic nutrition. In autotrophic nutrition, organisms make their own food from simple inorganic materials like CO2 and H2O using light as source of energy. Heterotrophic nutrition involves intake of complex materials prepared by other organisms. Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants containing chlorophyll, produce food substances [glucose & starch] from CO2 and H2O using light as source of energy and release O2 into atmosphere. Eating a balanced diet is vital for good health and wellbeing. Food provides our bodies with the energy, protein, essential fats, vitamins and minerals to live, grow and function properly. We need a wide variety of different foods to provide the right amounts of nutrients for good health.'
