Q2. Which one is exclusive characteristic of living organism?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
The most obvious and technically complicated feature of all living organisms is this ability to sense their surroundings or environment and respond to these environmental stimuli which could be physical, chemical or biological. We sense our environment through our sense organs. Plants respond to external factors like light, water, temperature, other organisms, pollutants, etc. All organisms, from the prokaryotes to the most complex eukaryotes can sense and respond to environmental cues. Hence, the correct option is Perception of events happening in the environment and their memory.
