The document compares and contrasts real and artificial plants, living and non-living things, and how to care for plants and puppies differently. It notes that real plants need air, water and sunlight to live and grow, while artificial plants do not grow and feel different. Living things need air, water and food, can reproduce, feel and move, while non-living things do not have these characteristics. When taking care of a plant and puppy, one would water and provide sunlight to the plant, but feed, bathe and walk the puppy since animals require different care than plants.

They become bigger after 6 months.
Leaves and Stems feel different.
Artificial Plants do not need air, or water or

food to grow and live are called LIVING
Things
Anything that does not grow or feel are
called NON -LIVING Things
