Solution

All living organisms are made of cellular components.but we can't tell that all cellular components are living.
Cellular compoents
are the complex biomolecules and structures of which cells, and thus living organisms, are composed.

Examples include macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids, and structures such as membranes, and organelles. While the majority of cellular components are located within the cell itself, some may exist in extracellularareas of an organism.[1]

Cellular components may also be called biological matter or biological material. Most biological matter has the characteristics of soft matter, being governed by relatively small energies. All known life is made of biological matter.
