Like many animals although a car also moves it is not considered as a living organism. Give 2-3 reasons.


● Although a car also moves it is not considered as a living organism.


● All living organisms have certain common characteristics, such as respiration, growth and reproduction, movement, excretion, response to stimuli, etc.


● A car does not show respiration, which is an essential process for living organisms.


● It does not exhibit reproduction, a process that ensures continuity of species. It does not produce more its own kind.


● Although it shows movement, but it does respond to any stimulus.


● Due to the absence of common life processes, a car is considered as a non-living organism.
