Are animals more alive than plants?

Plants cannot move about like animals, so does that mean that animals are more alive than plants? Explain why.

I guess the answer is yes as animals move unlike plants but I do not know how to explain in more detail. Thanks in advance

    There's no such thing as more alive or less alive. It's either alive or dead. If it's alive it's alive if it's dead it's dead, period. Simple organisms and complex organisms are equally alive or equally dead.
