Living things are categorised as such if they carry out the 7 life processes. These are: Locomotion (movement), nutrition (gaining nutritional material from the environment or feeding), excretion (getting rid of waste), respiration (breakdown of food to release energy), growth, sensing (sensing environmental stimuli & reacting accordingly) and finally reproducing. This means that to be living, all organisms must produce offspring. Basically, all living things have babies of one sort or another. All of the above processes can be remembered by the mnemonic Mrs Gren or Mrs Nerg.
