water is not a living object.
Given the basic attributes of living matter:
1.) Growth- water does not grow.
2.) Movement- Water moves with the presence of external force.

3.) Response to Stimulus- water does not pat you back when you pat it. right?



therefore, water is not a living object. properties of living matter are not manifested by it.

Wrong!
Water is an object. Grow? as in changes in size and shape? Yes- it does that. Movement- Yes it moves without external force- it evaporates, the vapor turns into rain... etc... Response to stimulus- it most certainly does! Think about movement in plate tectonics, one small movement and water can respond in extreme ways.
