Question
Which of the following is not a property of all living organisms?
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Photosynthesis is a process carried out by autotrophs (plants, some algae, and bacteria) to produce their own food. Heterotrophs (animals, fungi, many bacteria) do not perform photosynthesis; they obtain energy by consuming other organisms. Reproduction, movement (at some level), and respiration (cellular) are properties shared by all living things.
Hint
Do all living things, like animals and fungi, make their own food from sunlight?
