Maria Gillis Assignment #5: Living or Not

I definitely can conclude that my plant is living. I know this because they rely on nutrients to survive. Each plant is made up of cells, like all living things. Cells are the basic form of life. My plant adapts to its environment and it obtains energy from the sun.
Since we put our seedlings in plastic bags in the beginning of the year, they have dramatically changed. They went from small black dots on a paper towel, to little black dots with a small stem, to a small plant, to a giant plant that takes up a large part of the garden. You could put the seedlings under a microscope and possibly see the actual cells of the plant as another way to tell it’s in fact living.
