Can non-living things show responses to stimuli?

  • 1

Non-living things cannot show genuine responses to stimuli. Any apparent response is due to mechanical or chemical processes rather than biological reactions, as non-living entities lack the complexity of living systems.

  1. Non-living things do not exhibit genuine responses to stimuli as living organisms do. While they might appear to react to environmental changes, such responses are due to mechanical or chemical processes rather than biological reactions. For instance, a metal rod expands when heated, but this is a physical response, not a biological one. Living organisms, in contrast, have complex systems that allow them to react and adapt to stimuli in meaningful ways.
