How are viruses unlike organisms?
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.
