If viruses are considered alive, they would be the only non-cellular lifeforms.
But the term "life" may only include activities that occur at a cellular level. Without cells it would be very difficult to distribute and use nutrients, which is part of the definition of biological life.
Viruses and the related form called prions are proteins that affect cells but have none of their autonomous chacteristics. This is why there is debate over whether viruses should be considered "alive."

What part of the cell theory could you use to refute his claim?
The cell theory states that all living organisms are composed of cells, which are the basic units of life. If the claim in question suggests that some organisms do not consist of cells or that cells are not the fundamental building blocks of life, you could refute it by emphasizing that every known form of life, from bacteria to plants and animals, is made up of cells. Additionally, the theory asserts that all cells arise from pre-existing cells, reinforcing the idea that cells are essential to life.
