If you open your mind for broader definitions that are impractical in a casual conversation, you will agree that cell phones have the following qualities:
-Digestion (cell phone breaks down electricity and shits heat)
-Response to stimulus (Do I need to explain this? If your cell phone doesn't respond to stimuli, it's broken.)
-Interaction between species. (Humans, duh)
-Organs (internal parts which interact to execute the overall functioning of the cellphone)
-Tissues (the products used to create the organs - metals, plastics, etc.)
-Reproduction (cellphone reproduction is dependent on human desire to create more cellphones - symbiotic relationships similar to bees and flowers)
-Adaptation (through cellphone via human reproduction, cellphones adapt to better suite their environment, human daily life)

Why am I wrong?
