Is it possible to use metabolism and proteins in DNA replication of cosmic ships with plant or animal components?

You mean spacecraft that are made of living organisms?

Can you please provide some more detail on what you are suggesting?

It is written :The glucose is used to generate the chemical energy required for general metabolism as well as a precursor to myriad organic building blocks such as nucleic acids, lipids, proteins, and structural polysaccharides such as cellulose.

It is written:Vitamin D provides a hormone-like function, regulating mineral metabolism for bones and other organs. 

It is written :Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, is a vitamin found in food and sold as a dietary supplement.[3] It is essential to the formation of two major coenzymes, flavin mononucleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide. These coenzymes are involved in energy metabolism, cellular respiration, and antibody production, as well as normal growth and development. The

OK, but you have not explained what idea those pieces of text suggest to you.

And in your previous post what does "cells"mean, please?  A one word response is not very helpful.

Unicellular eukaryotes are sometimes called protists. Archaea, bacteria, protozoa. 

Evolution of life on other planets is not known

Could you possibly stop talking random stuff with no discernable connection to the subject, do you think?

Thanks awfully.

Sounds like the ships of the Oankali in Octavia Butler's Xenogenesis aka Lilith's Brood trilogy. An extraordinary SF talent. They were fictional aliens and spaceships of course - with fantastically fictional biotechnologies that she managed to make sound plausible, kind of. Imaginary technology. As fiction it is fun. As a way to make (grow) actual spacecraft, not actually plausible at all.

I've been thinking "Lexx", the insectoid spaceship of the series.
