reproduction

The correct answer will be options-

1. Movement

2. Reproduction

Explanation:

Biologists have tried to distinguish the living thing from the non-living thing on the basis of eight characteristics that are unique to the living world.

Out of these eight characters, there are few characters which are not necessarily present or shown by the living organisms like movement and reproduction. Take the case of plants which do not show movement but still considered a living thing and the sterile organisms which cannot reproduce or produce offsprings.

Thus, movement and reproduction are the correct answer.
