Surprisingly males can live without intercourse and producing offspring. Dogs are begging to be overpopulated, some have no homes, some are being killed because there is no homes for them to live and shelters cannot possibly keep them all. So they either become neutered and cannot produce or they become over populated. All male dogs are not neutered.

What sort of animal is a mule?
A mule is technically not a living thing, as a living thing is classified as having cell organization, ability to grow and develop, respond to stimuli, uses energy, and reproduce. A mule cannot reproduce, no matter what you do. I guess it depends on your opinion. It could be an exception, or it could be that is really isn't alive. My science teacher would probably say that it isn't because she said that the 6 properties of living things are laws of nature, and you don't break laws. But, I guess it could actually be an exception because it was our idea to breed a horse and a donkey, that wouldn't really happen in nature, would it?
When was the Titanic born?

Why does samara kill people?

How can you make a zombies map on call of duty world at war for PC?
You cannot beat zombie mode, it's a test of survival and how long you can stay alive so as long as you stay alive the zombies will keep arriving.
What are abiotic factors in the coastal desert?
The word abiotic means 'pertains to no life'. Remember that Biology is the study of life. Think what you would see in a desert that is not alive: perhaps sand, stones, gravel and even a little rain. None of these are alive. You can not kill them, they do not reproduce.
If something can not yet reproduce but will be able to in the future can it be considered alive?
No, something that cannot reproduce yet cannot be considered alive according to the biological definition of life. Reproduction is a fundamental characteristic of living organisms.
How do viruses have genetic material but they are not alive?
Viruses are not considered alive because they cannot reproduce on their own. They must invade another cell or bacteria and implant their genetic material into that organism's genome in order to replicate.
What kingdom do viruses and bacteria belong to?
Viruses are prokaryotes and not Eukaryotes. Therefore they are not alive. Since it is not considered to be alive they do not belong in the 5 kingdom classification; Monera, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia, Protista. Bacteria are living once celled organisms and belong to either bacteria or Archaea. *Viruses not considered alive because they need a host to be able to reproduce. They cannot reproduce on their own.
Is an organism something that is alive or once was alive?
Yes, an organism by definition is not only alive, it reacts to stimuli, maintains homeostasis, grows and can reproduce. Once it dies, it returns to the soil or water as organic matter. If something cannot be alive, it is inorganic. This includes all the minerals on the earth or what we sees as "rocks".
Virusers are not considered alives because they lack what?
Viruses are not considered alive because they lack the ability to reproduce unless they have a host to reproduce for them. When viruses are not attache to a living cell they lose all living characteristics.
Can a tornado reproduce?
No. Tornadoes do not reproduce. They are not alive.
What is the main reason why a nonliving thing cannot be considered alive?
Nonliving things lack the ability to grow, reproduce, adapt to their environment, and respond to stimuli like living organisms do. They also do not have metabolic processes or the capacity for evolution.
Can viruses reproduce with dead or alive cells?
Viruses cannot reproduce on their own because they lack the necessary cellular machinery. They need to infect a living host cell in order to replicate and produce more virus particles. In some cases, viruses can infect and replicate within host cells that are no longer alive, but this is not considered true reproduction.
How do guppies reproduce?
They reproduce by mating.
Why are mules considered alive even though they cannot reproduce?
Of the list of 'characteristics of life', reproduction is a big one. However, the characteristics aren't really 100% necessary, and more importantly, even if a mule can't give birth to another mule, the cells in the mule's body reproduce to help it grow.
Which of these objects is are alive A protein molecule A cell A virus?
A cell is considered alive because it can independently carry out the functions necessary for life, such as metabolism and reproduction. A protein molecule is not considered alive as it lacks the ability to perform these functions on its own. A virus is a debated topic in science as it cannot reproduce on its own but requires a host cell to do so, blurring the line between living and non-living.
Why do viruses consider to be non living?
They don't, for the most part, that is. Scientists argue over whether or not viruses are alive because some believe that they have all the qualities you need to be considered alive, which are.... * They reproduce * They obtain and use energy * They grow and develop * They respond to the environment The only thing that is different is that they cannot use their genetic material on their own. They need a host, a cell, to reproduce. So therefore, scientists continue to argue on whether viruses are alive, or not. :D
