No, you are not there yet. What separates life and death? is it cardio functioning? Is it brain working? Is it being able to enjoy breathing, or hearing? What is exactly a vegetative state? Is that life? would death be better for that person?
Great men and women have struggled with these questions for a long time. heart/lung machines, and respirators, and EEG machines make us think on these questions, and struggle with the answers. It is difficult to unplug a loved one from one of these supportive machines to keep them breathing, or the heart beating, when the brain is silent.
Why is it important to understand the characteristic of life in a health care setting?
Can someone please help me with this!!!??? I'm really confused and I'm not sure how answer this... Can you please just give me a few ideas to get started?? I'm thinking that people working in healthcare would need to know if their patient is alive obviously and how to monitor their vitals to know if they are functioning properly, but I'm not sure this actually answers the question. I need a more in depth answer please!!

That really doesn't help much. This is biology dude not ethics. Read the question.
If you don't know what separates life and death, you don't know much about biology.
I did, Dude. Where do these decisions take place?

What kind of decisions are made in a health care setting that involves an understanding of life?
Maybe I am not as smart as you.
