All life whether ameba or man. Is either a cell or is made up of cells, that perform complex tasks.
Although some none living chemical substances can perform, very complex tasks, or create chemical reactions based upon certain conditions, introduced to the substance. The responses from the non-living chemicals, and structures, are extremely predictable, and very simple.
Although computer chips could be introduced to allow for a wider array of responses from a non-living chemical substance. At best we could imitate to some degree a living organism.
However at the microscopic level, of reproduction that life itself is capable of, we cannot compete in reproduction and healing, against a living tissue. The individual cell, is just too complex and fragile for us to make, or duplicate. We are far from understanding its principles.
Living tissue as mentioned is made up of cells, a cell membrane surrounding the cell, is responsible for removing waste from the cell, and filtering nutrients entering into the cell.
Each living cell has a nucleus. This nucleus contains the DNA, or the plan for the cell, and organism. The nucleus is also surrounded by a membrane, this is the nuclear membrane.
The nucleus for lack of a better term is the brain, computer, or clock of the cell. It is believed to control the speed at which the cell, intakes nutrients and expels them. It is believed that the nucleus, decides the rate of growth of the cell, and when the cell reproduces.
It is these two structures that separate man from machine. Or life from a robot. Anything else we could duplicate.
A cell can sustain damage to the cell membrane. However damage to the cells nucleus is fatal.

What are the characteristic features of living organisms?
Characteristic features of living organisms include the ability to grow, reproduce, respond to stimuli, adapt to their environment, and maintain homeostasis. Living organisms also have complex organization, require energy for metabolism, and are composed of cells.
What term do you give to the unique features of organisms?
The unique features of organisms are typically referred to as their "traits" or "characteristics". These traits encompass a wide range of physical, behavioral, and genetic attributes that distinguish one organism from another.
What does is mean that there is both unity and diversity in life?
all organisms have similarities and differences of characteristic, features, environment, or any other things.
What are characteristic of multicellular organisms?
The main characteristic is that they have many cells.
What characteristic is most important to the evolutionary success of organisms on earth?
The characteristic that is of paramount importance for the evolutionary trend and success of organisms today is Adaptation.
What characteristic is most importance of the evolutionary success of organisms on earth today?
The characteristic that is of paramount importance for the evolutionary trend and success of organisms today is Adaptation.
What characteristic do organisms have to have in order to be classified as a kingdom?
Organisms must share common features in terms of their structure, behavior, and genetic makeup to be classified as a kingdom. Kingdoms represent the broadest classification of life forms, with unique characteristics that distinguish them from organisms in other kingdoms.
What characteristic increases an organisms fitness?
It's a adaptation.
Characteristic features of under-developed country?
no
What is a synonym for physical features?
characteristic, air, semblence, mannerism, features, dress
Similar features in organisms that do not share a recent common ancestor are the result of what?
Similar features in organisms that do not share ancestry means both organisms adapted to their environment. They developed the features to survive.
What is the most important characteristic of living organisms?
All living organisms are composed of one or more cells.
