The patients on life support system are definitely living. Though they remain on the life support system their heart works in a proper condition. Other than their heart, their whole body stops being responsive.

The non-responsiveness of the whole body is due to the reason that the brain of the person stops responding to any kind of action. The life support system ensures that the person stays in a neutral condition and if any changes occur, the doctors can observe them through the system.

Answer:

They are living even though they have no self consciousness. They have cellular organisation which is a defining feature of all living organisms
