Abstract. We have assumed that the elements in growing substances described by the Eden model and DLA are active only for a finite period. The patterns obtained in a modified Eden model and a modified DLA where the lifetime is finite are changed to the self avoiding walk. We have found a universal behavior in both models with lifetime.
