A virus is a no-cellular organism. Some may argue the point of viruses being living or dead, but all concede that cells and viruses share little in structure. Cells are membrane bound. If a virus has a membrane it took it fro a cell it erupted from. Cell grow and reproduce on their own, plus they metabolize on their own. Viruses need a " parasitic " relationship with cells to do any of these things.

∙ 13y agoVirus is considered as a living organism since it doesn't have what we call a well-defined cell. It has a protein coat and genetic material only. It is a matter of controversy whether to classify viruses as living or non-living. They lack all other cell components. Hence, it cannot be classified as unicellular or multicellular.
