Ebola is NOT a eukaryote. Ebola is NOT a prokaryote. Ebola IS a VIRUS. ALL Viruses are NOT considered either prokaryotes or eukaryotes because they lack the characteristics of living things - (except the ability to replicate and to do that they have to hijack another living cell).

first of all virus is not an organism. it lacks cell, tissue and organ because of this virus is an entity or macro molecule rather than an organism.since virus is not organism it i9s also not living thing. virus is intermediate between living and non-living.
an oxymoron, maybe a virus, something that died
(: A virus is Nonliving cause it needs a different living organism to survive. Kay Bye. =]
No. No virus is living.
Since viruses are nonliving, they are not given genus and species names. This virus is called the Ebola hemorrhagic virus (EHV).
The Ebola virus is the actual name of the pathogen that causes Ebola. Yes, it is a virulent pathogen, but that is to the name, just a description.
No. It is nonliving.
Virus cannot considered living. They lack cellular organization
Viruses are not an organism at all. They are not alive. They are nonliving. They are like cockle burrs that "grab" hold of your clothing or a dog’s coat. They are hijackers. Once they get attached to the cell of a living cell, they can take it over and "make" the living cell produce virus particles instead of cell parts. These particles can assemble into more viruses and then they break out of the cell (killing it) and begin the process again. They do not eat like living organism do.
HIV is a virus, and since viruses require another organism to carry out the functions that would classify it as a living organism, it's considered "dead," that is until it finds a host.
A virus is considered non-living. It does not have all the characteristics of a living thing unlike bacteria. Viruses need living cells to reproduce while any living things can reproduce (asexually or not).
It is nonliving like all viruses and are not effected by sub zero temperatures.
It is a virus. Ebola is a RNA virus.
There are five strains of ebola virus. The Zaire ebola virus in 1976, Sudan ebola virus in 1976, Reston ebola virus in 1989, Cote d'Ivoire virus in 1994, Bundibugyo ebola virus discovered in the year 2007.
