Our View of “Living” CarsHow does a car have DNA? How does it
respond to it’s surroundings? Does it grow and develop, or evolve?
We aliens have come to one simple conclusion: nothing can be done without the use of humans. Cars cannot possibly be alive because they are not independently controlled. Although a car may have some traits of a living organism, that is far from the truth.

Genetic Code We have found that cars do not have a genetic code that carries DNA. However, they do have different parts that can be considered DNA. But what happens when one of those parts dies, and needs replaced? Is the “hereditary material” changed too? And what if that new part is a different size or shape, or from a different company? Then the genetic code really would be different. A slight change in that DNA would completely change the car and what it’s made of.

Living Things Maintain a Stable Internal Environment
If a car “falls asleep”, then the engine is shut off. But a living organism’s heart does not stop when it is sleeping.

Growing and Developing Considering a car is a multicellular
organism, it would not be able to grow and develop due to the absence of any metabolism, hormones, or tissues that could grow along with the car. A car would also only have one stage of life, giving it no reason to grow or change

Organization/Cells
By using close observation, and a few tests, we have concluded that the cars are not made of cells, much like other living beings

Evolution
Since cars cannot grow and develop, they have no means to evolve or advance.
Cars can advance, though, into newer models, but that is through the help of humans

Obtaining Materials and Energy It appears that these
cars are given energy by fuel
However, they seem to only be able to consume this energy when it is supplied by humans
They cannot independently receive their energy source, like other creatures

Responding to EnvironmentThe car, can’t respond to the environment. If its cold out your car won’t automatically turn on the heat and vise versa.

Reproduction Cars cannot reproduce sexually or asexually
They can’t simply “honk honk” and a new car appears

Conclusion…From the research, we discovered
that cars cannot fully operate without the consent of humans. Humans are needed to give energy, and even fix cars. Although they have similar parts and functions, they are not living beings.
