It would be very hard to find many things similar to both, as both are very much different. But some technically correct answers would be:

* Both are composed of proteins * Both can reproduce copies of its genes * Both have the letter 'i' But all these answers are very broad and meaningless. Biologists prefer to find differences between the two rather than clumping them into similarities.
