No. Rotting wood is part of a ex-living thing. The bacteria and/or fungi in it, that are causing the deterioration, are living things though.
An apple is a living thing when it is still attached to the tree, as it is part of a fruit-bearing plant that undergoes growth and reproduction. However, once it is picked and has begun to decay, it can be considered a non-living thing, as it no longer exhibits the characteristics of life such as growth or metabolism. Therefore, whether an apple is living or non-living depends on its state and context.
Decay reduces living organisms to simpler organic compounds, such as water, carbon dioxide, and minerals, releasing nutrients back into the environment.
No it is not a living thing
the answer is dead why would it be living.....

this depends on what type of decay you are asking about. the decay of tissue, or the decay of elements. elemental decay is the process in which an element (carbon, hydrogen, uranium, etc...) loses atoms, and is unpreventable. the decay of tissue is a process where decomposers such as scavengers (vultures), and bacteria eat away at the once, living matter. the only way to prevent this is to keep the composers away from the "thing."
The same thing occurs to all fish and living things when they die, indifferent of the type of material that they are living inside of; they decay and turn into organic matter.
I don't believe there is such thing as a living fossil, but you could find any fossil almost anywhere! Of course not in your kitchen, but any land of which you can dig into the earth of which the fossils decay.
Yes
It is a living thing.
Non living
A rat is a living thing
An animal is a living thing.

Light is not a living thing.
