6 SIGNS OF LIFE

All living things have common traits, irrespective of plants and animals. Living beings can be broadly classified into plants and animals. They both have common characteristics, and follow a universal circle of life that includes birth, reproduction, and death.

All living things move in some way. This may be obvious, such as animals that are able to walk, or less obvious, such as plants that have parts that move to track the movement of the sun.

Sweating is one of the ways that the body maintains a stable internal environment. It helps keep the body’s internal temperature constant. When the body’s internal environment is stable, the condition is called homeostasis.

Answer and explanation; Water is a non living thing. Water does not posses the characteristics of living things; and besides we talk about alive or dead when it comes to living things. Living things are made of a single or many cells; unlike the case of water; and these cell are responsible for their living nature.

Filtered and sterilized water is basically “dead” water, void of essential minerals and natural ingredients.

Water is non living. We talk about alive or dead only when it comes to living organisms. But water doesn’t show any of these characteristics. It is made of Oxygen and Hydrogen elements.

Rocks themselves are not alive. But in a coral reef rock-like lime substance is continually produced from the skeletons of dead rock corals and the shells of mussels and other creatures which are bound together by sponges and calcareous algae.

A rock is the ultimate example of inanimate, dead matter. After all, it just sits there, and only moves if it is pushed.

Some rocks contain molecules that could have formed only in the presence of oxygen. The more of those molecules geochemists find in a rock, the more oxygen must have been in the atmosphere at the time. When they look at the oldest rocks on earth, they find no trace of oxygen in the atmosphere.

Known in Romania as “Trovants” the stones of Costesti, Romania are a type of sandstone concretion that secrete cement and can at times appear to grow as if alive.

Consisting of a stone core with an outer shell of sand, after a heavy rain small forms are said to appear on the rocks leading them to be dubbed the “growing stones” by locals. The “Muzeul Trovantilor” or “Trovants Museum Natural Reserve “ was created in 2004 to protect the unusual geological creations.

The Short Answer: Earth’s gravity is strong enough to hold onto its atmosphere and keep it from drifting into space.

Oxygen levels are decreasing globally due to fossil-fuel burning. The changes are too small to have an impact on human health, but are of interest to the study of climate change and carbon dioxide. This corresponds to losing 19 O2 molecules out of every 1 million O2 molecules in the atmosphere each year.

Half of the world’s oxygen is produced via phytoplankton photosynthesis. The other half is produced via photosynthesis on land by trees, shrubs, grasses, and other plants. A mature forest, for example, takes in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and converts it to oxygen to support new growth.
