Explanation

It is difficult to define life as there are no defining properties for life. The properties exhibited in the beginning are different from the properties we see today. This is because evolution has taken place.
In the same way, unexpected properties have emerged and are seen in different combinations today. So it is difficult to set down standard properties for "life".
Hence scientists have taken a few characteristics seen in almost all organisms and given them as the properties of "life".
