Which five of the following characteristics are found in all living things? Movement Blood system Sight growth photosynthesis Nutrition Sensitivity Speech excretion

There are five characteristics that make organisms different from non-living things. These characteristics of living organisms are as follows: Nutrition-Living things take in raw materials from their environment and use their growth or to provide energy. Therefore, nutrition is the process by which living organisms obtain ATP, the energy currency of cells, and raw materials from nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Movement-All living things move. Plants show movement in various different ways. Excretion-All living things excrete which is the result of the many chemical reactions occurring in cells, they have to get rid of waste products' accumulation of which might be toxic to the cells. Excretion can be defined as the removal of toxic materials, the waste products of metabolism from the body of an organism. Growth-Growth is observed in all living things. The permanent increase in cell number and size is called growth. Sensitivity-All living things are able to sense and respond to stimuli around them. Environmental cues such as light, temperature, water, gravity, and chemical substances trigger sensation.
