What are two activities that are characteristic of cell but not of viruses?

Cell division and protein synthesis are activities that are characteristic of cells but not viruses. Cells can undergo mitosis or meiosis to reproduce, while viruses rely on host cells to replicate. Cells contain the machinery for protein synthesis, while viruses hijack the host cell's machinery for their own replication.
