Viruses are not an organism at all. They are not alive. They are nonliving. They are like cockle burrs that "grab" hold of your clothing or a dogs coat. They are hitch hikers. Once they get attached to the cell of a living cell, they can take it over and "make" the living cell produce virus particles instead of cell parts. These parts can assemble into more viruses and then they breakout of the cell (killing it) and begin the process again. Other organisms don't do this.
Unlike organisms, viruses are not cellular, nor do they have ribosomes or any other organelles for protein production, energy generation, etc. They cannot capture or store free energy but can only use energy derived from their host. Also, viruses can only reproduce via the host and not on their own.
Viruses
I don't know about the same as other organisms,but definitely faster!MUCH faster!
Some viruses target harmful organisms. For example, bacteriophage viruses kill bacteria. Other viruses might kill mosquitoes or weevils or other harmful insects without hurting any other species.
yes
The true statement is that viruses are not living. Unlike living organisms, viruses lack cellular structures and cannot reproduce or produce energy on their own; they require a host cell to replicate and carry out their functions. Therefore, they do not possess organelles or the ability to reproduce independently.
destruction of a host cell
There isn't a single "founder" of viruses as they are naturally occurring entities. Viruses have been evolving alongside other living organisms for billions of years. The study of viruses and their impact on living organisms is an ongoing area of research in virology.

viruses are unicellular organisms
Viruses are acellular particles that require a host cell to replicate, while cellular organisms are standalone living entities. Viruses lack organelles and cannot carry out metabolic processes independently. Cellular organisms, on the other hand, have a defined cell structure with organelles and can carry out all life processes independently.
