So if I ask you to define what a human is, you’re not going to draw at all from any previous scientific studies?

I doubt it. Not to get too ontological, just saying science (biology, psychology, anthropology) very much do define what human is.

For a lot of people, I would think that the answer to "what is a human?" Would be closer to religious and philosophical definitions than scientific ones.
