Viruses are non-living, and require a host cell in order to survive and function. So the answer to your question is yes, that is exactly what a virus does -- it takes over a healthy cell and uses its machinery to do its dirty work, eventually ending up in the death of the healthy cells.
The cell becomes a virus breeding machine the virus takes over the cell and uses it to make more viruses
A virus the immediately takes over a cell's functions is an active virus. An active virus causes the host cell to make new viruses, destroying the host cell.
There is no other living thing that requires a virus in order to reproduce.

When a virus takes over a cell, it incorporates it's genetic code into the DNA of the host cell. The host cell reads the viruses genetic code, which will instruct the cell to divide and thus make even more copies of the virus.
The acronym HPV stands for Human Papilloma Virus. It belongs in the virus kingdom because it is a virus. Like all viruses it is dormant until it enters a cell, and it then takes over the existing cellular machinery to reproduce itself.

The virus attaches to the host cell, it takes over the functions of the host cell, and it eventually destroys it. If there was no host cell, the virus would die.
The flu virus is a virus. It is a non-living particle that infects living cells, takes over their machinery and makes more of themselves.
The virus's genetic material.
First: The virus attaches to the hostSecond: The virus injects it's genetic materialThird: The Virus starts to assemble itselfFourth: The virus takes over the cell and breaks it open, killing the cell
A virus the immediately takes over a cell's functions is an active virus. An active virus causes the host cell to make new viruses, destroying the host cell.
The virus takes over the cell and it uses the cell to make more and more virus then it spreads out.
The virus takes over your cell, then reproduces with the infection, making more viruses.
