the constitution would be a living breathing document that would change with the times
The Constitution of the United States is considered a living constitution because it can be ammended by the Supreme Court and so while it was written a long time ago it is still being changed to this day. So, because the original document is not "written in stone" and can be altered it is considered to be a "living" constitution. If this is a homework question, next time use the index or table of contents if you are unwilling to do a bit of proper reading or research, it will only take about a minute to find the answers.

The Bill of Rights is not a living document in that is interpreted differently according to current philosophies. It is living in that it is a timeless relevent work.
The United State's 1787 Constitution is a living document based on the societal values of the time. The power is rooted in the interpretation of the document's vague wording. Some of the current issues regarding the USE of the Constitution is the abandonment of the "Checks & Balances" specifically in War Making Ability.

living document
Of course the statement "the constitution is a living document" is metaphorical, since no document is living, it's a piece of paper with writing on it. As a metaphor, this statement would suggest that the constitution remains relevant and connected to the society which it helped to establish in the late 18th century, which is a long time ago. If you think that the constitution has become irrelevant, then you would say that the constitution is not a living document. Personally I find it to still be relevant.
