Why do biologist not classify a car as a living organism?

because it is not living, not a livin organism. I would class it as a thing, a materlier. But what does it mean to be alive? According to biologists living organisms are characterized by seven "signs of life": 1) living things have highly organized, complex structures; 2) living things maintain a chemical composition that is quite different from their surroundings; 3) living things have the capacity to take in, transform, and use energy from the environment; 4) living things can respond to stimuli; 5) living things have the capacity to reproduce themselves; 6) living things grow and develop; and 7) living things are well-suited to their environment.

Why cars and flashlights are not classified as living things?

Cars and flashlights are not classified as living things because they lack the fundamental characteristics of life. Living things exhibit traits such as growth, reproduction, response to stimuli, and metabolism, which cars and flashlights do not possess. Cars and flashlights are man-made objects that do not have cells, the basic building blocks of life, and cannot carry out essential life processes like obtaining and using energy. Therefore, they do not meet the criteria for being classified as living organisms.

What is the smallest unit of matter?

PPLO i.e. pleuro-pneumonia-like organisms. Viruses could be the smallest living things, but they cannot be classified definitively as "living" since they do not carry out the processes associated with life. They only reproduce, and then only by altering the reproductive mechanisms of other organisms.
