Some examples of non-living things include rocks, water, weather, climate, and natural events such as rockfalls or earthquakes. Living things are defined by a set of characteristics including the ability to reproduce, grow, move, breathe, adapt or respond to their environment.

The seven characteristics of life include:

1.responsiveness to the environment;

2.growth and change;

3.ability to reproduce;

4.have a metabolism and breathe;

5.maintain homeostasis;

6.being made of cells; and.

7.passing traits onto offspring.

If it is not one of these it is not a characteristic of life. Pick the one(s) not on this list.

Hope this help!
