How viruses differ from living cell?
A virus is an inert chemical, with no metabolic activity, when it is not inside a cell. It cannot function on its own. Whereas with a living cell you always have a metabolism, even if the cell is part of a parasitic organism.
What must reproduce inside a virus?
Nothing reproduces inside a virus. It has to latch on the a host cell and insert its' DNA or RNA and then make the host cell reproduce virus particles.

Can a virus release and use energy?
Virus particles have no metabolism and does not use energy. However, some viruses have kinetic energy stored in the high pressure inside them, this energy is released when they squirt their genome into the host cell. When they hijack the cell to make more viruses the cell will use energy to produce new viruses.
Does a virus get energy by reacting chemicals with oxygen?
No, a virus has no metabolism whatsoever. It relies entirely on tricking the host cell to do its work; while outside a cell, the virus doesn't move, eat, or anything.
