Final answer:

To receive dynamic IP addresses and access the Internet using domain names, a computer requires DHCP for IP address allocation and DNS for domain name resolution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two services required to enable a computer to receive dynamic IP addresses and access the Internet using domain names are DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) and DNS (Domain Name System). DHCP is a network management protocol used on IP networks whereby a server dynamically assigns an IP address and other network configuration parameters to each device on the network, so they can communicate with other IP networks. DNS translates domain names to IP addresses, allowing the browser to load Internet resources.
