Response to external stimuli
The living things have life while the non-living things do not have life. The living things locomote and respond to stimuli while the non-living things do not.

1. All living things are made of cells; no real example2. All living things reproduce; cells reproduce by mitosis3. All living things have a lifespan; Organisms must die at some point like days after their birth, or hundreds of years (years)4. All living things respond to stimuli; Ex. Your senses, phototropism5. All living things grow and develop; Trees grow from small seeds to huge organisms6. All living things are highly organized; Atoms make up molecules which make up cells which make up living things
Change in the environment is external stimuli and the response of life to external stimuli is adaptation or extinction.
