Nutrition and Substance Exchange
Nutrition involves the exchange of matter and energy between organisms and their surrounding environment. To perform this exchange, different tracts and systems work together to obtain nutrients and oxygen, which are distributed to each cell of the body. They also expel waste substances out of the body.
Substance Exchange in Unicellular Organisms
Unicellular organisms exchange substances directly with their surrounding environment through a plasma membrane.

Evolution of Planetary Models
Models Planted.
1. Ptolemy (2nd Century)
- Geocentric Model: The Earth is at the center of the universe.
- All stars and planets revolve around the Earth in circular orbits.
- To explain the movement of planets against the background of fixed stars (retrograde motion), Ptolemy introduced epicycles and deferents.
- The model is mathematically complex but fits observations well and can be applied in practice (navigation, eclipse prediction, etc.).
2. Copernicus (16th Century)
