The ability to move is not a characteristic of life, as not all living organisms exhibit movement. For example, plants remain stationary but still grow and respond to environmental stimuli. The other characteristics—response to stimuli, reproduction, and energy utilization—are essential traits that define living organisms.

Describe how an important characteristic of life - an organism's ability to respond to stimuli in its environment - can help an animal in the wild avoid a predator?

An animal's ability to respond to stimuli in its environment allows it to detect and react to danger signs such as predator sounds or scents. When an animal senses these stimuli, it can quickly assess the threat and take evasive action, such as fleeing or hiding, to avoid being caught by the predator. This ability to respond to stimuli can be crucial for survival in the wild by increasing the chances of escaping or avoiding predators.
