All the living organism is made up of cell and shows living characteristics by showing some visible movement such as walking, breathing, or growing. However, a living organism can also have movements, which are not visible to the naked eye.

But all the living cells perform life processes like respiration, nutrition, reproduction, etc. Therefore, the presence of life processes is a fundamental criterion that can be used to decide whether something is alive or not.

Answer 2

Answer:

Any visible movement such as walking, breathing, or growing is generally used to decide whether something is alive or not. However, a living organism can also have movements, which are not visible to the naked eye.  Therefore, the presence of life processes is a fundamental criterion that can be used to decide whether something is alive or not.

Evidence which can ensure something is alive or not  :-

• Shape and Dimension
• Reproduction
• Growth
• Cellular structure
• Metabolism
• Movements
• Self-regulations
• Variation
• Co- ordination
• Definite life cycle
• Death
