Living and Nonliving Things - class 5th

Water is a fundamental requirement for all known forms of life to carry out biological processes.

In an aquarium, you would observe living organisms like fish interacting with their environment, such as eating plants.

The sun is the primary source of energy for nearly all ecosystems on Earth, as it powers photosynthesis in producers.

Reproduction is the biological process by which living organisms produce new individual organisms of the same species.

A park contains both biotic factors (trees, birds, grass) and abiotic factors (benches, rocks, paths).

To reproduce means to produce offspring or make more of one's own kind. All living organisms reproduce to ensure their species continues. Options B, C are garbled, and D is water in HTML tags.

Cars, water, and benches do not possess the characteristics of life, such as growth, reproduction, or metabolism, so they are classified as non-living.

All non-living things exist in our environment - the surroundings where we live, including both natural and human-made objects. Options A and C are both 'moon' (duplicate), and B has a typo.

Non-living things do not exhibit the life processes of growth, development, or reproduction, meaning they do not change in the biological sense.

Dogs, trees, sheep, and cows are all organisms that carry out life processes, making them living things.

People, animals, and plants are all living because they grow, reproduce, need energy, respond to stimuli, and carry out all life processes. They are biotic organisms, not non-living things.

All living organisms require water to survive, as it is essential for cellular processes and maintaining life. Rocks and nonliving things do not have biological needs.
