Every living thing can reproduce. As a living been ends its life in someday they involve in reproduction which can produce another living been which has the same qualities of their parents.

Living things can respond to the environment. We know this from the experience we will move to shade if there is too much of sunlight. Plants will wilt if there is no water.
4. Living thins can grow and develop
Living things are growing and developing. This can’t do by non living things.

Every living thing needs energy to continue their lives.

Every living thing can move, even a plant. Although we can’t see plants are walking water and nutrients are moving in their xylems.
