Question

what criteria do we use to decide whether something is alive ?​

Answer 1

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.....

In order to determine whether anything is living or not certain characteristics are taken into consideration. The various characteristics of living things are:

• All living things need food

• All living things grow

• All living things respire

• All living organisms respond to stimuli
