Life is a characteristic distinguishing physical entities having biological processes, such as signaling and self-sustaining processes, from those that do not, either because such functions have ceased, or because they never had such functions and are classified as .

Various forms of life exist, such as plants, animals, fungi, protists, archaea, and bacteria.

The criteria can at times be ambiguous and may or may not define viruses, viroids, or potential artificial life as "living".

Biology is the primary science concerned with the study of life, although many other sciences are involved.

Biologically, a child (plural: children) is a human being between the stages of birth and puberty.

The legal definition of child generally refers to a minor, otherwise known as a person younger than the age of majority.

A mother is the female parent of a child.

Mothers are women who inhabit or perform the role of bearing some relation to their children, who may or may not be their biological offspring.

Thus, dependent on the context, women can be considered mothers by virtue of having given birth, by raising their child(ren), supplying their ovum for fertilisation, or some combination thereof.

Such conditions provide a way of delineating the concept of motherhood, or the state of being a mother.

Women who meet the third and first categories usually fall under the terms 'birth mother' or 'biological mother', regardless of whether the individual in question goes on to parent their child.

Accordingly, a woman who meets only the second condition may be considered an adoptive mother, and those who meet only the third a surrogacy mother.

Sleep is a naturally recurring state of mind and body characterized by altered consciousness, relatively inhibited sensory activity, inhibition of nearly all voluntary muscles, and reduced interactions with surroundings.

It is distinguished from wakefulness by a decreased ability to react to stimuli, but is more easily reversed than the state of being comatose.

Sleep occurs in repeating periods, in which the body alternates between two highly distinct modes known as non-REM and REM sleep.

Although REM stands for "rapid eye movement", sleep affects other brain-body functions, including virtual paralysis of the body.
