How you could use a microscope determine whether the specimen is a living or non-living thing?

A microscope can help determine if a specimen is living by observing if it shows specific characteristics of living organisms like movement, growth, or reproduction. Additionally, the presence of organelles or cellular structures typical of living cells could indicate that the specimen is alive. On the other hand, if the specimen lacks these characteristics and appears inert or does not exhibit any cellular components, it is likely non-living.


What are some observations that can be made to determine whether an object is living or not?

Some observations that can help determine if an object is living include looking for movement, growth, reproduction, response to stimuli, and the ability to consume and utilize energy. Living organisms typically exhibit one or more of these characteristics, distinguishing them from non-living objects.


Which observation could lead to the conclusion that an object is non-living?
