No, crystals are chemical compounds that are not considered to be alive.
Crystals are non-living things, they may grow, but they are not alive
No. Ice is a mineral, and minerals are not alive.
Biologists do not consider crystals of salt to be alive for a few reasons. They do not contain cells or DNA, and they are inorganic since they do not contain hydrogen or carbon.
Crystals despite the ability to grow are not living organisms. The presence of cellular structures organized to perform functions, as well as metabolism define living organims. Crystals have neither.
There was one website that i happened to have stumbled on and apparently they're not. And i don't think they are either. My parents have some for their plants and i just think that they're some type of "thing"Here's what i found...i found out that these so called water babies are actually just water crystals and contary to popular beliefs, it is NOT a living thing, NOR a baby.Water Crystals are odorless white water-absorbing polymers that absorb and hold water. These little water crystals absorb up to 400 times their weight in water, and expand to many times their original size to make beautiful clear gel-like water crystals.
Salt crystals do grow and are extremely organized for an organism but is not considered alive. The reason for this is because salt crystals do not have one single cell, and in order to be considered alive it must contain at least one cell.
Minerals, although they can "grow" as crystals, are not alive and are therefore classified as inorganic matter.To be classified as a mineral, a substance must be a solid, have a crystalline structure, be inorganic, be naturally occuring, and have a very specific range of chemical formulae.
The somewhat outdated but not yet supplanted answer is that life was said to exist if something eats, excretes and replicates. Admittedly rather broad and inconclusive, it's still considered a workable definition. As such, crystals, which typically do none of these, are not alive.
This is a wrong conception freezing people will and bring them back to life is not going to happen. First humans are 70% water and low temperatures causes the human body to generate ice crystals and it will grow and kill the cells. Freezing is mostly for decease people because at freezing temperatures decompositions will not happen so they can preserve their bodies as long as it is cold.
No, the largest mammal alive while dinosaurs were alive was a bit larger than a modern large rat.
To get air. The larger the creature, the larger the lungs - because more oxygen must be processed into the body to keep you alive.
There were thousands of super volcanoes, Earth was only just still forming while the dinosaurs were around.
