life: moving, having DNA, Requiring food, maturation, dying, there are other qualifiers, but I cant remember them.
Human life: a collective of cells working together to form a complex organism, all acting together under the command of the brain cells which are relayed through out the body by nerve cells, all working together for the good the collective whole. As a colective the brain cells of a fully functioning human should be capable of emotions and should be able to differentiate between pleasureable and painful stimuli. Self awareness is one of the defineing factors of a human.
In infancy (or fetal developement) it is the capability of emotion that seperates the humans (and a few other primates) from the rest of the animal kingdom.
