A living thing is called an organism. An organism is made up of cells. Plants, humans, and animals are living things, Things such as rocks or toys, are not living. A living thing needs to take in energy and give off unneeded substances as wastes. All organisms known on Earth have DNA, or codes determining how this organism would live.

Living things can generally be defined as things that reproduce, react to the environment, and go through natural selection.
