Solution

The correct option is D Respiration
Maintenance of life requires processes like nutrition, respiration, transport of materials within the body and excretion of waste products.
Reproduction also helps in increasing the population of the species. All the processes which are necessary to maintain life in an organism are called life processes. Reproduction is not considered a life process because it is not necessary to maintain life.
