Rice is considered nonliving because it is a processed food product derived from the seeds of the rice plant. Once harvested and dried, rice grains do not exhibit the characteristics of living organisms, such as growth, metabolism, or response to stimuli. However, they originate from a living plant, which is where their life cycle began.
