Yes, an organism by definition is not only alive, it reacts to stimuli, maintains homeostasis, grows and can reproduce. Once it dies, it returns to the soil or water as organic matter. If something cannot be alive, it is inorganic. This includes all the minerals on the earth or what we sees as "rocks".
An organism considered dead can no longer perform life functions and does not respond to stimuli. In contrast, a living organism actively maintains homeostasis and responds to its environment to sustain life processes. The concept of an organism being "dead and alive" simultaneously does not align with biological definitions.
Yes - organisms must be living things. They can be dead - as in they were once alive, but they cannot be a non-living thing, such as a mineral. All organisms are capable (in some way) of responding to stimulus, growing, reproducing and maintaining homeostasis. Therefore a non-living thing cannot be called an organism.
An amoeba is a living organism. It is a single-celled microscopic organism that carries out essential life processes such as feeding, moving, and reproduction.
A mutation is something that affects the structure or function of an organism. Mutations can occur in an organism's DNA, leading to changes in the genetic information that can impact how an organism develops or functions.
Yes. Any food made from something that was once alive will contain nucleic acids.
This is punky
Something that's not alive- eg a rock,glass An organism is alive- eg plant or an animal
If an organism is no longer growing, moving, responding to stimuli, or carrying out metabolic processes, it is likely dead. Signs of decomposition, such as changes in color, texture, or smell, also indicate that something was once alive. Differentiate between alive and dead organisms by observing their behavior, physical characteristics, and overall condition.

Anything that is alive is an organism.
The definition of "alive" is something tha reacts to stimuli, maintains homeostasis, grows and reproduces. Even when a daffodil is in the dormant state, it is a living organism, so YES daffodils are alive.
An organism is biotic because it is alive.
Organic materials are anything that came from a living organism, or from something that was alive at some point in time.
An organism considered dead can no longer perform life functions and does not respond to stimuli. In contrast, a living organism actively maintains homeostasis and responds to its environment to sustain life processes. The concept of an organism being "dead and alive" simultaneously does not align with biological definitions.
An abiotic feature in an environment is something there that isn't alive, like a rock or water. But if it is just a dead thing that once was alive it's bioltic, which means alive.
Yes. Anything that lives ( or was alive) is an organism.
