torisob [31]

The sudden drop in blood pressure after a motor bike accident is due to the intensive loss of blood that reduces the blood volume of the body.

Blood is the red-colored fluid present inside the body and pumped by the heart. It consists of RBCs, WBCs and platelets. Its function is to transport oxygen carbon dioxide food, hormones from one part of the body to another through the RBCs. The red color of the blood is due to the pigment hemoglobin.

Blood pressure is the pressure with which the blood flows into the arteries of the body. It is of two types: systolic pressure and diastolic pressure. The ideal blood pressure must be approximately 120/80 mmHg.

All living organisms, whether unicellular or multicellular, large or small, carry out a certain set of metabolic activities which are necessary for the organism to stay alive.

As the icicle is not undergoing any metabolic activity it is non-living. Growth in size is a characteristic of life but it is not the basis on which a living and non-living thing can be differentiated.
