No, "never lived" refers to something that has not experienced life, while "non-living" means something that does not possess life. "Never lived" implies a lack of existence, while "non-living" indicates the absence of life in an existing entity.

How is a living thing different from something that has never lived?

A living thing has biological processes such as metabolism, growth, and reproduction, while something that has never lived, such as a rock, does not exhibit these processes. Living things also respond to stimuli and have the ability to adapt to their environment, characteristics that non-living things lack.

Why is it possible to produce living cells from non living things such as rocks?

Living cells cannot be produced from non-living things like rocks. Cells come from pre-existing cells through processes like cell division. The origin of life is still a topic of scientific debate, but it is generally believed that life emerged from complex chemical reactions in a prebiotic environment.


Can DNA evidence be found on a rock?

As far as my knowledge in both biology and geology goes, no. Only living or dead things can have DNA. Rocks are non-living. Non-living and dead may sound similar, but they are two completely different things. Non living things have never lived. Dead things have lived, but are not longer living.
