Solution

The correct option is B excretion
All living things produce a lot of waste as a result of activities like digestion, respiration, etc. in their body. If this waste is accumulated in the body, it becomes toxic. So, it has to be removed from the body. The process of removal of waste is called excretion.
Reproduction is the process by which an organism produces young ones.
Growth is increase in size of the organism.
Movement is the process by which an organism changes position from one place to another.
