In order for something to be classified as alive, through out its life, it must have/have done all of these once.
Cellular organization
Homeostasis
Metabolism
Responsiveness
Reproduction*
Heredity
Growth
If that's the case, does that mean that no one on b.ne bis truly alive?

That hurt my brain

You don't feel alive until you're strangling someone tbh

Edited by The GR8 Autismo: 1/13/2018 4:04:31 AMYou don’t truly feel alive until you pull out
-
Well, I sure feel dead inside.
-
So 99% of this forum is dead?
-
Heredity is genetics Why would you write that
-
I hate to be that guy but if I don’t it’ll bug me. All these things just refer to the ability to do so. And yes I am very fun at parties.
-
It must know that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
-
I was just expecting something far more......not this.

Omae wa mou shindeiru

No It just does those stuff
-
Yep No one on b.ne is truly alive on the other hand a couple of people on b.net are.

I'm pretty sure it means the cells in our body reproduce. So... yes. We're all alive. [spoiler]unlike your dream of making good humor.[/spoiler]

1. living things are made of cells 2. they reproduce 3. contain genetic material. 4. Have to grow and develop 5. obtain and use material and energy. 6. react to the enviroment 7. go through homeostasis 8. Evolve

So life doesn’t begin at abortion. Checkmate.

Capable of reproducing.

Incorrect. The being doesn't need to have/do all of these things, rather they need to be capable of it. Aside from that, reproduction can also refer to mitosis, or meiosis which is essentially the reproduction of cells through multi-segmented processes, forming a diploid (mitosis) and haploid (meiosis). Similarly, plants themselves are capable of both of these systems, as well as the aforementioned "reproduction" which yields the same results (that is the formation of a new generation of progeny) as in animals. Oddly, in all land plants, they have a reverse version of what follows in animals, such that their reproductive cells are formed during mitosis, in a cycle known as alteration of generation. These are separated into Sporophyte (multicellular diploid) and Gametophyte (multicellular haploid). The primary cause for this, is that one cycle produces haploid cells prior to the reproductive stage, and haploids containing only one of each necessary chromosome, cannot be further split. This said, plants themselves cannot technically reproduce as they themselves are subject to many critical events which may prevent them from effectively reproducing, such as self pollination. Yet they retain the potential for reproduction. Simply in a way that you may find mildly confounding to understand. To be classified to be alive: -Possess DNA -Made of at least one cell -Consume energy -Develop/grow/change over time -Capability for reproduction -Homeostasis Hope this helped.

Does this mean that homosexuals aren’t alive? 🤔

As father of 2, all I can say is GIT REKT DED-BOI

You saved the thinking qt I posted the other day lol
-
Reproduction is the species having the ability to reproduce.
-
I can divide cells in my body, does that count as reproduction?
-
What happened to MRS GREN? That's what I was always told. Anyway, reproduction probably refers to the ability to do so, although I'm not really sure it's a valid requirement for being alive.
