Life is not something mysterious, impossible or very difficult to know, understand, define, describe or explain. Life can be scientifically studied and understood: biology is the science of life.
Scientific knowledge about life (explicit, symbolic, linguistic, formalized, declarative, descriptive, explanatory, theoretical, and empirical) is not the same type as the practical knowledge that organisms have to do what is appropriate to stay alive (implicit, subsymbolic , procedural, practical, predictive): the vast majority of living beings do not know how to describe or explain what life is and how it works, but they are alive and know what to do, in a limited and imperfect way, to stay alive, develop and reproduce . An animal wants to eat and drink and knows how to get food and water even though it knows nothing about biochemistry and metabolism; that animal also avoids harmful substances without knowing that pathogenic microorganisms exist; an organism seeks an environment with adequate acidity even if it does not know what the protons are responsible for that acidity; a cell maintains an autocatalytic metabolism even though it does not know what metabolism or catalysis is.
