Is Fire A Living Thing? (Picture) by Idamond: 5:27pm On Sep 01, 2021 |
According to Biology, life can be defined as "A distinctive characteristic of a living organism from dead organism or non-living thing, as specifically distinguished by the capacity to grow, metabolize, respond (to stimuli), adapt, and reproduce" If this is the case, would not fire be a living organism? It grows via oxidizing things around it, it grows, and it can adapt, (changing chemical composition based on what it's burning). Am I missing something? Because it certainly seems that fire is a basic form of life. Any biology student in the house what's your claim?
