Detailed explanation-1: -Non-living things are lifeless. They do not have cells, and there is no protoplasm which forms the basis for life to exist.
Detailed explanation-2: -All living things, or organisms, are made up of at least one cell. Some organisms, such as amoebas, are made up of only one cell and are therefore called unicellular organisms. On the other hand, multicellular organisms, such as humans, are composed of more than one cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -All living things are made of cells; the cell itself is the smallest fundamental unit of structure and function in living organisms. (This requirement is why viruses are not considered living: they are not made of cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -A cell is the smallest unit of a living thing. A living thing, whether made of one cell (like bacteria) or many cells (like a human), is called an organism. Thus, cells are the basic building blocks of all organisms.
