The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The living organisms can be unexceptionally distinguished from non-living things on the basis of their ability to respond to touch and other stimuli.
Growth and movement:- Even non-living things do move like sand dunes and even mountain show growth i.e increase in size
Reproduction:- sterile couple do not reproduce
In-vitro reactions: Non-living beings are characterized by their tendency to show in-vitro reactions.
Responsiveness to stimuli:- a person in a coma does not respond to stimuli
Interaction with the environment and progressive evolution:- but the person in a coma can hear things can see things i.e his body is interacting with the environment. No non-living thing shows evolution.
Growth and movement:- Even non-living things do move like sand dunes and even mountain show growth i.e increase in size
Reproduction:- sterile couple do not reproduce
In-vitro reactions: Non-living beings are characterized by their tendency to show in-vitro reactions.
Responsiveness to stimuli:- a person in a coma does not respond to stimuli
Interaction with the environment and progressive evolution:- but the person in a coma can hear things can see things i.e his body is interacting with the environment. No non-living thing shows evolution.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : The potential (V) at any axial point, at 2 m distance(r) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector\(\vec{P}\) of magnitude, 4 × 10-6 C m, is ± 9 × 103 V.
(Take \(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=9\times10^9\) SI units)
Reason R : \(V=±\frac{2P}{4\pi \epsilon_0r^2}\), where r is the distance of any axial point, situated at 2 m from the centre of the dipole.
