They arent alive
Yes!

The type of cells that viruses live in are host cells. Viruses need host cells in order to reproduce or multiply.
cells are alike in structure and composition
Viruses can infect animals, plants and bacteria, and the attachments vary. In animal viruses: Animal cells have a cell membrane. Viruses attach to certain proteins in that membrane. In plant viruses: Plants can also be infected with viruses. Since they have cell walls, viruses attach to those when infecting plants. In bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria): Special viruses called bacteriophages attach to the cell walls of bacteria by way of proteins.
That statement is part of cell theory, which is summarized as follows:Living organisms are composed of one or more cells.Cells are the most basic unit of life.Cells come from other living cells which preceded them.
Yes!
Latent Viruses: some viruses can be latent. That means that after the virus enters a cell, its hereditary material can become part of the cell's hereditary material.

None. Viruses are acellular. Many biologists do not consider viruses to be living things in part because they are acellular. Look at any phylogeny (tree of life). Viruses are not on them.
Lysosomes
The type of cells that viruses live in are host cells. Viruses need host cells in order to reproduce or multiply.
This is something all viruses do in effect when they attack a cell and make the cell start producing new viruses as a part of their reproductive process. See the related question below about the Lytic Cycle which describes the steps in that process.
No. The RNA/DNA is in-cased in the "capsid". This is not the same thing as a cell wall.Edit: a cell wall - as the name implies - is a part of a cell. Viruses are not cells. Cells are living, viruses are not. Cells are also much larger in size - a virus to a cell could be roughly compared to a man standing next to the Empire State Building.
No,it is found in every cell as it is the main part of a cell according to Cell Theory.
