Question

A motor car moves, takes in oxygen, and gives out carbon dioxide, consumes fuel but nevertheless is not a living creature. In what ways does it not qualify as a living organism.
Short Note

Solution

A motor car requires external energy for its movement and also it does not perform the vital life activities on its own, hence it is not a living organism. A living organism has internal energy which is used for carrying out all its vital life activities.
