It is difficult to determine a definition for life that is suitable for all situations. instead of defining life, biologists have decided to
describe the characteristics of life
determine if something is living or non-living based on its complexity
qualify life based on whether something can move or not
determine something is living if it responds to outside stimuli

The Correct Answer is (A) Describe the characteristics of life

Explanation:

The correct answer is the first one: biologists describe the characteristics of life rather than providing a definition. Some of the characteristics include:

growth

reproduction

metabolism (using and transforming energy)

organization (into multiple cells or within the cell)

a. seed plant structure. 1. the three main plant organs are roots, stems, and leaves. a fourth kind of tissue, meristematic tissue, is responsible for plant growth. meristematic tissue is the only plant tissue that produces new cells by mitosis. plants can lose water out of their leaves as they exchange gases with the air
