The reality is that there is a very colorful spectrum of microscopic biology and that a single bin of "alive" and "not alive" is like trying to paint the mona lisa with a single pixel. This scishow video gives a good look at the tip of the iceberg. https://youtu.be/FXqmzKwBB_w https://youtu.be/FXqmzKwBB_w
- Noaidi 1y agoAs they said in another comment, life is the ability to decrease entropy. That definition would tie in quantum mechanics.
