(Cold Climate- Animal grows more Fur) regulation Where optimal levels must be maintained to achieve homeostasis. When levels are not optimal the organism needs a regulatory process. ( Shivering when cold- Shivering creates heat) Energy Processing Biochemical reactions that produce energy. The sum of those biochemical reactions are metabolism. Living organisms need energy= ATP. Plant traps light for photosynthesis Metabolism The sum of biochemical reactions Growth and Development All living things experience growth or change over their lifetime.
