Why scientist believe that virus are not living organisms?
viruses do not grow, and viruses do not respond to changes in their environment. Therefore, viruses are not living organisms. All living things reproduce, but Viruses need living cells to reproduce because Viruses cannot reproduce by themselves.
Viruses cannot do what?
They can not reproduce without a host as reproductive vector. They have no metabolism and do not preform cellular functions. Viruses are genetic material enclosed in a protein capsid.
Can non-living things reproduce?
Viruses can reproduce only inside a cell of living organisms. Viruses are sometimes considered non-living structures because they lack cells.
What is a characteristic of viruses?
They can reproduce.
Viruses can reproduce only inside what?
host cells!

Are Viruses able to reproduce without using other organisms?
viruses are dormant when they are not inside a living cell. that means they don't have living characteristics when outside a living cell. they only reproduce when they are inside a living cell.
What to viruses reproduce?
a host Cell
How do viruses reproduce compared to bacteria?
Viruses replicate inside body cells, using the host cell to do the work and provide the materials for reproduction. Bacteria reproduce outside body cells and, since, unlike viruses, they are living organisms, bacteria are able to do the work and production of new bacteria without a need for a host.A description of the 'Lytic Cycle', the process that some types of viruses follow in reproduction, is given in the related questions below for more detail of the process of reproduction of some viruses inside body cells.

What do viruses have to support the idea that they are living?
they reproduce
What are pathogens cannot reproduce on their own?
viruses
Can non-living things reproduce?
Viruses can reproduce only inside a cell of living organisms. Viruses are sometimes considered non-living structures because they lack cells.
What viruses break into cells to reproduce?
All viruses do that. That's what makes a virus a virus.
What are properties of viruses?
viruses are non cellular , they have no sexual or asexual reproduction they reproduce by replication
What is a characteristic of viruses?
They can reproduce.
Are viruses parasitic?
Yes because all the viruses uses host cell mechanisms to reproduce and then at the end of the reproduction process it destroy the host cell.Therefore there is no non-parasitic viruses.All viruses are parasitic.
