it does not have a life function
A virus is an organism that only carries out one life activity. This activity is known as reproduction. The study of viruses is called virology.
The only life function that a virus shares with a cell is reproduction. Both cells and viruses reproduce in some way.
They contain genetic material. Although virus' contain genetic material, they can not reproduce without being inside of a host cell. Many scientists question if they can be considered living or not, as this is the only life function they are capable of performing.
No. Virus is non-living, and is not necessary for it to undergo photosynthesis.The only living property of virus is reproduction. It does not contain any organelle
Rather more easily than mutations in your genome! A virus which may have only a few hundred genes can have large changes in function from just one mutation and can be then accounted a new "species " as progeny inherit the mutation. ( as much as one counts viruses as species )

yes virus have life but only in the host cell
The only function a virus can perform is to make more of themselves.
Survival and reproduction are important to any organism, even viruses, who are not considered biotic (living). Viruses just have less necessary life functions than other large animals you may know of.

You have got to be kidding! No. You can only get AIDS through the virus HIV which is in the blood of an effected person who carries it. Kissing such a person will not give you aids.
You cannot cure mono. Only your body can fight off the virus. The Epstein-Barr virus is a strain of the herpes virus, so it stays in your body for the rest of your life.
Any single celled organism carries out the functions of life, but, if considered living, a virus is much smaller than a cell. However, viruses are only DNA and can do little except control a cell with their DNA. They do not eat, or control their own movement, nor can they reproduce without a host.
