A living thing must be able to use energy to grow, reproduce, excrete wastes, and respond to the environment. A nonliving thing cannot do one or more of these things.

A non-living thing is any object, entity, or organism that does not exhibit characteristics of life, such as the ability to grow, reproduce, respond to stimuli, or maintain homeostasis. Examples include rocks, water, and man-made objects like a chair or a building.
