The ability to reproduce

Explanation:

The biologists have tried to distinguish the living organism from non-living organisms on the basis of eight characteristic feature unique to the living organisms: cellular organisation, genetic material, heredity, reproduction, growth, sensitivity, and evolution.

There are some exceptions to this characteristic feature like the ability to reproduce as the parents sometimes result in the sterile offsprings like observed in humans in Klinefelter's syndrome and other species like Mules are sterile.

In the given question all other options are characteristic but the ability to reproduce has few biological exceptions.

Thus, the ability to reproduce is the correct answer.
