Science 7 - LAND and SEA BREEZE and its Characteristics
Is it living bio project
1. Useless Without
Humans

2. Our View of “Living” Cars
How does a car have DNA? How does it
respond to it’s surroundings? Does it grow and
develop, or evolve?
We aliens have come to one simple
conclusion: nothing can be done without the
use of humans. Cars cannot possibly be alive
because they are not independently controlled.
Although a car may have some traits of a living
organism, that is far from the truth.
3. Genetic Code
We have found that cars do
not have a genetic code that
carries DNA. However, they do
have different parts that can
be considered DNA. But what
happens when one of those
parts dies, and needs
replaced? Is the “hereditary
material” changed too? And
what if that new part is a
different size or shape, or from
a different company? Then the
genetic code really would be
different. A slight change in
that DNA would completely
change the car and what it’s
made of.
4. Living Things Maintain a Stable
Internal Environment
If a car “falls
asleep”, then the
engine is shut off.
But a living
organism’s heart
does not stop when
it is sleeping.
5. Growing and Developing
Considering a car is a multicellular organism,
it would not be able to grow and develop
due to the absence of any metabolism,
hormones, or tissues that could grow along
with the car. A car would also only have one
stage of life, giving it no reason to grow or
change
6. By using close
Organization/ observation, and a
few tests, we have
Cells concluded that the
cars are not made of
cells, much like other
living beings
7. Evolution
Since cars cannot grow and develop, they
have no means to evolve or advance.
Cars can advance, though, into newer
models, but that is through the help of
humans
8. Obtaining Materials and
Energy
It appears that these
cars are given energy
by fuel
However, they seem to
only be able to
consume this energy
when it is supplied by
humans
They cannot
independently receive
their energy source,
like other creatures
9. Responding to Environment
The car, can’t
respond to the
environment. If its
cold out your car
won’t automatically
turn on the heat and
vise versa.
10. Cars cannot
reproduce sexually Reproduction
or asexually
They can’t simply
“honk honk” and a
new car appears
11. Conclusion…
From the research, we discovered
that cars cannot fully operate without the
consent of humans. Humans are needed to
give energy, and even fix cars. Although
they have similar parts and functions, they
are not living beings.
