UNIT1:
LIVING THINGS
All things can be classified as living or non-living. Biology provides the criteria that we use to differentiate between the two classes. These criteria include the precence or absence of life activities such as movement, response, reproduction, growth, and respiration.
Movement often indicates that things are living. Plants, as well as animals, move. For example, if a plant is placed near a window, it will grow towards the light. The movement is a response of the plant to the light. When a driver sees a red light, he stops his car. He is responding to the red avoid danger and get the things they need.
Reproduction and respiration are other life activities. No more animal or plant can live forever, but the ability of living things to reproduce has because it helps supply the energy required for all life activities
