Living is breathing eating drinking i learned that some plants can't live in some climates while others can and that some things may appear living but just be reacting to a certain elements. Like an experiment we did in class something appeared alive but was just moving because of what it was in and that's what I learned abou what is living.

Living is a breathing,adapting,growing,drinking organism. I learned that some seeds grow better in a different types of waters such as fresh water,salt water and sugar water. i would think most seeds grow better in fresh water but surprisingly the water we had was sugar water and are seeds grew fine. The orbeez we had grew pretty big in the water. everyone else's grew a tiny bit but not a lot.

To me , living means: Is is moving?
Is it breathing?
Does it have eyes?
Is it growing?

Does it depend on anything else to move?
How is it moving?

Living is having cells needing water and sometimes food. what i learned about in my science class about living, are science teacher gave us viles A B C D E and we had to figure out if they were living or not living. A we found out is sand and it is not living, viral B is yeast it is not living as well, C was little red balls and they grew from water and we found out they were exsplodibles and they were not living, and then we had viral D which is living and we found out they were radish seeds, viral E is living they were really small things called sea monkeys, thats how we figured out how or why its living or non living.

 I think lliving things need to


1. Eat or obtain some sort of energy


2. Reproduce they need some way to carry on


3. Breathing maybe not the same way as us but still


4. A living place all things have a certain place they stay


5. Senses they need some way to get what they need

aaliyaha -- my what is living reflection :)

Article posted October 12, 2012 at 01:08 PM GMT-8 • comment (1) • Reads 699

in my opinion living is when something or someone is breathing, reproducing, drink (in anyway possible)water, they eat food too. in ways they move also, see a plant is living but it doesn't move, well that only what we see. in reality plants move everyday! the only way it would move is the way it reproduce. the roots grow in different plants so then in a weird way it is moving, by reproducing. there is one more thing i didn't mention is that when something or someone is living 9/10 chance they grow, growing is one of the main ways to see if something is living. growing is the way the body changes itself from a "baby form" to an "adult form".

Living things need to be able to do certain things:
Grow and develop
Take in energy (eating, drinking, and photosynthesis)
Eliminate waste
Reproduce
Be made of cells
Respond to their environment (leaving an unsuitable habitat)
Adapt to their environment
Achieve and maintain homeostatus


You may not be able to see all these things happening just at once, but if ALL of them ARE happening, it's living.
