Gotta Eat

The video explores why all animals, including humans, need food, not just for hunger but for energy to grow, move, and stay warm. It highlights the necessity of food for all living things, contrasting with non-living things like rocks. The video also explains how plants, despite not having mouths, require food to grow and repair themselves. An experiment is suggested to observe how varying food levels affect plant growth, demonstrating that more food results in more energy and growth.
