Scientists who study rock formations in caves describe some of the formations as "living rock" because, under certain conditions, they increase in size. Which statement would best dispute the claim that these rock formations are living?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Rocks are not composed of cells but only living organisms composed of cell.

Explanation:

A cell is the smallest unit of life. Cells are the basic unit (biological, structural and functional) of all living organisms. Rocks can not perform all characteristics of living things like movement, irritability, reproduce and others.   cells consist of cytoplasm enclosed within a membrane that contain protein and nucleic acids.
