Living refers to organisms that exhibit growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli. They consume energy, adapt to environments, and maintain homeostasis. Plants, animals, and microorganisms embody life, each playing a role in ecosystems. Living beings interact, evolve, and depend on resources, forming complex cycles of creation, survival, and eventual decay.
The creature moves, its form subtly shifting with breath, muscles flexing beneath its surface. Tiny motions—blinks, twitches, the rhythm of its chest—betray its living nature. Warmth radiates, and its eyes follow with deliberate focus.
