Answer 2

An important characterstic of life is : (C) Organisation

• Body organisation is considered as one of the important characterstic of life.
• Charaterstic of life are those things that define life and only take place in living organisms without any exception where as, absent in non-living things.
• So, when we consider organisation, every organism has its own unique body organisation. For example:Sponges have cellular level of organisation where as, Arthropods have organ level of organisation.
• Also, movement of molecules also takes place in gases. So, cannot be taken as a defingcharaterstic of life.
• Sand mountains in deserts also grow, where as cells in q0 stage do not grow. So, this cannot be taken as defining charaterstics of life.
• Also, coordination is seen in technology and patients in coma cannot coordinate. So. this also cannot be taken as characterstic of life.
