∙ 13y agoResponse in non living is not motion(like contraction in muscles), but they do respond electromotively. Such reseach on the similarities of electrical response to stinuli was done by J.C. Bose. He found that metals not only respond to mechanical disturbance and heat, but also to various chemical reagents,stimulants, and poisons.
