All animals can be divided into three groups on the basis of their food habits. These are:
  1. Herbivores
  2. Carnivores
  3. Omnivores
Different steps in the process of nutrition in animals
There are five steps in the process of nutrition in animals.
  1. Ingestion: the process of taking food, drink, or another substance into the body by absorbing it.
  2. Digestion:  the process in which the food containing large, insoluble molecules is broken down into small water-soluble molecules is called digestion.
  3. Absorption:  this is the process by which the digested food passes through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream is called absorption.
  4. Assimilation: The process in which the absorbed food is taken in by the body cells and used for energy, growth, and repair is called assimilation.
  5. Egestion: The process in which the undigested food is removed from the body is called egestion.
Nutrition in Simple Animals:
Amoeba and paramecium are two very simple unicellular animals. In unicellular animals, all the processes of nutrition are performed by the single cell.
Nutrition in Amoeba:
  • Amoeba eats tiny plants and animals as food which floats in water in which it lives.
  • The mode of nutrition in Amoeba is holozoic.
  • The process of obtaining food by Amoeba is called phagocytosis.
