What would you call the driving force of the body?

Life.

And what is life? What elements does it consist of ?

It doesn't consist of elements - it's a biological process.

But I'm not saying I can define "life," just that it's what I call the
driving force of the body, which is what you asked. So if by "soul" you
just mean "life," then fine, but I don't think that gains us much in terms
of insight.

It does differentiate kittens from toy robots, though, which your previous
definition ("...does not move") fails to do.
