They don't have their own metabolism and they can't reproduce on their own, two reasons for which they are obligatory parasites. They have to infect other cells with metabolisms to reproduce.
What refers to science of Viruses?
Virology is the study of viruses and virus-like agents: their structure, classification and evolution, their ways to infect and exploit cells for virus reproduction, the diseases they cause, the techniques to isolate and culture them, and their use in research and therapy. Virology is often considered a part of microbiology or of pathology.
Cells are the basic unit of life Viruses differ from cells in many key ways what is a feature of viruses but not cells?

What is the importance of virology?
Virology is the study of viruses and virus-like agents, including ways they infect and exploit host cells for purposes of reproduction. It is important because as more and more is learned about them, the greater are the chances that better ways to treat and cure viral invasions of the body will be developed.
What do viruses do to your body?

How are cells and viruses are the same?
I'm pretty sure they are both a microscopic orgainism found in a human's body. Some viruses are single-celled organisms. They can be parasites that infect a host body in order to reproduce and increase in size which is what can make that host body sick. So a cell can be a virus because viruses can consist of only one cell. The only reason the virus would cause harm is because millions of them can be reproduced quickly asexually and completely invade a certain part/or all of the host body.

How virus enters our computer?
Good question.Viruses can enter computers in many ways. Once a virus has entered a system, it will generally hide until it is unknowingly run by the user. A virus will not act until it has been run or some pre-established condition has been met, such as a specific date. The effects of a virus may not be noticed for some time after it has infected a computer.Viruses can infect several components of a computer's operating and file system including:System Sectors/Boot Records - Viruses can infect the parts of the system that are used to run programs and perform functions such as start up and shut down.Files - Viruses can infect program files. These viruses stick to program files such as .com, .exe, .sys, etc. Some viruses hide in the memory of the computer at first, while others simply attack a specific software program, such as Microsoft Word.Companion Files - Viruses can create companion files that are a special type of file that adds files that run on the hard disk.Macros - Viruses can infect macro or data files.Disk Clusters - Viruses can infect files through the disk directory.Batch Files - Viruses can use batch files to infect a computer.Source Code - Viruses can be in additional code that is added to actual program source code.Visual Basic Worms - These worms use the Visual Basic programming language to control a computer and perform tasks.
