  1. 1.The goal of any living thing is to keep their inside homeostatic or without change. To do this a cell must have a membrane which separates the inside of the cell from the outside world.Inside of the cell there must be DNA and ribosomes which float in cytoplasm.These components allow the cell to make proteins which are able to do work inside of the cell and make changes.
  2. The goal of any living thing is to keep their inside at equilibrium or the same as the outside.To do this a cell must have a membrane which separates the inside of the cell from the outside world. Inside of the cell there must be DNA and ribosomes which float in cytoplasm.These components allow the cell to make proteins which are able to do work inside of the cell and make changes.
