It has changed with time
because it can change at any time. All it takes is the required amount of states to ratify an amendment and the constitution changes. Older amendments can be overturned as well. So the U-S Constitution is something that can change, not something that is carved in stone and unchangeable.
Because the added amendments breathe new life into it.
It is called a living document because it can be changed when it needs to be changed.
First of all, it is still used and relied on for an entire country of 300 million+ people. Secondly, and probably more relevant to this question, it is being changed. It can be ammended, and the way it is interpreted can change over time. Because it is not stagnant and it can change with time, it is considered a living document.

The Constitution of the United States of America is not set in stone. It is constantly subject to subtle interpretive change by the courts and major change by the passage of amendments.
The US Constitution can be called a "living document" because it enumerates the way it can be changed. Here are a few examples. Until 1865, the institution of slavery in the US was legal. There was nothing in the Constitution that said otherwise. Added to that mistake was the belief that slavery had always existed in the world, and that before the US Constitution was created, slavery existed and not enough officials or the general public had any strong objections to it ( generally speaking ). In 1865, according to its own "rules" the Constitution was amended to abolish slavery.
