a host Cell
Yes, viruses require a host in order to reproduce. They cannot replicate on their own and rely on infecting a host cell to reproduce and spread.
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.

viruses are non cellular , they have no sexual or asexual reproduction they reproduce by replication
All viruses do that. That's what makes a virus a virus.
they reproduce independentlyThis is a false statement as viruses need a host cell and it's replicative machinery to reproduce their genetic material.

Both have genetic materials.Both can reproduce.
