Write a descriptive essay examining the differences between a living thing and a nonliving thing.

Non living things are not alive. They do not possess life. They do not have cells and don’t grow or show locomotion/movement. They don’t undergo metabolism with anabolic and catabolic reactions. They do not reproduce.

Non living things do not have a life span. They do not respire as they do not require food for energy and hence do not excrete. They do not fall into any cycle of – born, grow, reproduce and die. They are destroyed or broken down by external force.

While Living things exist and are alive, sustaining life. They own life. Living things have structures known as cells, they grow and exhibit movement or locomotion. They experience metabolism which includes anabolic and catabolic reactions.

Living things are capable of producing a new life which is of their own kind through the process of reproduction. Living things have a particular life span and are not immortal.

Cellular Respiration enables living organisms to acquire energy which is used by cells to perform their functions. They digest food for energy and also excrete waste from the body. Their life cycle can be summarised as follows – birth, growth, reproduction, and death.

Explanation:

Well a living thing is if something breathes and has cells in them.a nonlibing does not do any of these things.here are Examples of nonliving things are rocks, bucket and water.a living thing(AKA CALLED BIO)can reproduce,move,grow,and die.while a non living thing does not move,grow or die.it just sit there forever until something moves them.

Explanation:

Here’s is a list

1. Living things can move, but non-living things cannot.

2. Energy is required by living things, while non-livings do not require energy.

3. Living things are capable of growth, reproduction and death.

4. Non-living things are non-motile, but living things can move around.

5. Living things respire; non-living things do not respire.

6. Living things adapt to the surroundings and respond to stimulus

Hope this helps

relationships aren't everything. people everyday spend there entire life depending on reltionships and for someone to be there for them when this is absurd. why must people depend on someone else to bring them happiness? i'm not saying it wrong to feel happy with someone, but people feel that they need to be in a relationship in order to feel happy, when, this is not true. you can paint, write, read ir slend tume with family ir even spend time working in yourself. this can be an exciting experience to find yourself. it's bot wrong to be in a relationship but if you let it be your only source of happiness, than you will never find true happiness.

so, relationships are not always worth it. if you are so dependent on them, than in the end they arent worth it because you will realize how unhappy you really were. some people even tend to cut ties with family because they think they cabt make them happy, obly realtionships with a lover can. false. in order to find true happiness, one must learn to love themselves if they want to love someone else. it's unhealthy to be always depend on relationships and to alqays be in and out of one.

so live life, get that job you always wanted, buy those new shoes and love yourself. depend on yourself, not others. they arent worth it, you can make yourself more happier than most people can do to you. it's not woth it. take your time and have fun.

an active site is a region that is present on an enzyme where the reactants or the substrate molecules we can say bind and experience a chemical reaction. the substrate is basically a reactant whose concentration is changing and that is converting into a product after binding at the active site of an enzyme
