What are living things?
Living things move, respond to stimuli, reproduce and grow, respire, and are dependent on their environment. Most living things need food, water, light, temperatures within defined limits, and oxygen. Non-living things are all the things that are not classified as living things.
Basic needs of living things
In order to survive, animals need air, water, food, and shelter (protection from predators and the environment); plants need air, water, nutrients, and light. Every organism has its own way of making sure its basic needs are met.
Plants as Living Things
The plants called living thing because they fulfil all the characteristics of living things:Growth: Through photosynthesis and by absorbing nutrients, minerals and water through their roots, trees do grow. Reproduction: Pollen and seeds make new trees. Excretion: Trees excrete waste (oxygen).
