Nonliving things are those which do not display life, such as rocks, water, glass.
(The term organic is used to mean items or substances created by life, even if the material is no longer part of a living thing, e.g. oil, wood, coral, seashells.)
The 5 characteristics of living things:
1. Living things are made up of one or more cell
2. Living things obtain and use energy
3. Living things grow and develop
4. Living things reproduce
5. Living things respond and adapt to their environment (Homoeostasis)
Biologists have classified viruses as "living" because they are made of the same types of proteins as other life. But they display very different life cycles.
Some examples of nonliving items in the rainforest include rocks, soil, water, sunlight, dead plant matter (such as fallen leaves or branches), and air. These elements are essential components of the rainforest ecosystem and play a role in supporting the living organisms within it.
Non-living things underwater include rocks, sand, coral reefs, shipwrecks, and human-made structures like submarines or buoys.
the ability to grow, reproduce, and respond to stimuli from their environment.
Nonliving things in the environment are called abiotic factors. These factors can include rocks, water, sunlight, temperature, and soil, which are critical components of an ecosystem but do not possess life themselves.
