Things that have life are called living things. For example, plants, animals
and humans.

Things that do not have life are called non-living things. Examples are all
man-made things and some natural things like rivers, sand, soil, etc.
Living things are different from non-living things in many ways.
Living things move
All living things move. Animals move
from one place to another to find food
and shelter. Animals, birds and insects
move in different ways. They walk, run,
fly, jump or crawl.
Plants do not move like animals as they do not
have to search for food. They make their food, but
their branches, leaves, and flowers move towards
the light and their roots grow towards the source
of water.
Human beings have a pair of legs to
walk, run, jump and skip.
Think &
Answer Plants are living things, but
they do not move. Why?
Non-living things do not move. For example, a car does not move unless
we drive it.
