A Cell
Cells.
The atom is the smallest unit containing a nucleus. However, this is not considered living. The smallest living thing in the world (besides viruses) are a parasitic Bacterium called Mycoplasma Gallicepticum.
The cell, is the smallest part of the body that is said to be alive.
The cell is the smallest living thing and an atom is the smallest non-living thing.
Yes. Considering it doesn't die in a plant cell, it is.__By definition, chloroplasts aren't alive. To be alive, the 'thing' must carry out all life processes. A cell is the smallest thing that can carry out said life process. Being that a chloroplast is part of the cell, it is not technically alive.TL;DR No, it's not alive
This smallest "thing" is the atom.
Difficult question. Viruses can be considered non-living because they lack a cellular structure and cannot metabolize things on their own. Porcine cicovirus is the smallest virus. Nanobes are considered the smallest known organism by most. But there are also Nanoarchaeum and Mycoplasma Gentilalium.
Cells are the smallest structures of an organism. (nothing simpler than a cell is considered to be alive)

No, a cell is the smallest part of a living organism that can be considered alive.

No. It's actually not even close.

an atom because it is the smallest thing alive in the universe and it would take about 100,100,000,000,000 atoms to be seen.
