That's not a very useful definition. What is it, then, that biologists are interested in? If you answer "life", your definition is circular and without informative value.
- ncmncm 6y agoIt is a perfect definition for exactly that reason. The boundary between life and not-life is exactly where biologists' interest fades. If you wonder why something is not alive, just ask any biologist why it is not interesting. Different biologists may give you different answers, but all their answers are useful.
