∙ 13y agoLife as a biochemical process requires respiration (oxidization of fuels), food intake (getting materials to burn), growth (mass increment), reproduction (ability to leave copies of itself). All of this characteristics involve METABOLISM, wich is common to all life in earth.
Not all living beings move, or reproduce, or respond to stimuli, but most do.

∙ 11y agoLiving things can move, breath, sleep, and pretty much any thing that we can do. Non-living things can't do any of the stuff that we do unless somthing supports it like an animal, human, wind, or another natural product, like rain.
Also, we can die.
