Would you consider the Planet, Earth, that humanity lives on a floating rock in the middle of space, or a giant life that has needs to survive like any other animal or organism?
Hmm good question... Well... I would think that the earth is like any other organism, but much bigger (obviously) Since earth can allow plant organisms to grow from its earth... etc... There's so many reasons, but I can't go into full depth at the moment... Sorry.
I think it is a living planet. If it isn't living, where the magnetic poles? Where's the nutrients? Where's the ozone layer? Without those, we wouldn't be here tlaking about this. :3
It pretty much counts as a living indiviual. It's populated by organisms that allow other organisms to sustain themselves and so on. XP
I don't know what to consider Earth. I may agree that its living, but don't all living thigns feed off of something? And if so, what is the Earth feeding off of to live? And I don't exactly want to say its just a rock because it has many things going on. (Everything in its core, magnetic poles, etc.) I don't really know what I'd classify it as if I only had those two choices.
