Question

a scientific space craft brought a material to earth from outer space. explain how we would establish if the materiald are living or non living​

Answer 1

Answer:

This might be a little difficult.

If the material does not produce more of itself, respire or produce other cellular function, or not move, it is non-living. However, if such a material was life-like but not life, the definition might change. Currently, we have found no signs of life, although martian soil seems to be producing heavy elements, unlike sterilized soil, and more like earth soil.
