Characteristics of Living Organisms

All living organisms share common characteristics, which distinguish them from non-living things.

Vital Processes

Vital processes, also known as essential life processes, are the necessary functions that maintain homeostasis and proper functioning of the body.

Essential Life Processes

The essential life processes for all living organisms include:
- Nutrition (obtaining and utilizing energy and nutrients)
- Respiration (exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide)
- Circulation (transport of oxygen, nutrients, and waste products)
- Excretion (removal of waste products)
- Movement (change in position or location)
- Growth and Development (increase in size and complexity)
- Reproduction (production of new individuals)
- Response to Stimuli (reaction to changes in the environment)
- Digestion (breakdown of nutrients into simpler forms)

Distinguishing Living Organisms

Living organisms are distinguished from non-living things by their ability to perform these essential life processes.

Planet with Life

Earth is the only known planet having life.
