Why arent viruses living?
Viruses are considered non-living because they cannot carry out essential life processes on their own, such as metabolizing nutrients or replicating. They require a host cell to replicate and do not have the ability to grow or respond to stimuli independently.
What abiotic factors define the willamette valley?
The abiotic factors that define the Willamette Valley in Oregon include mild temperatures, high rainfall, fertile soils, and the presence of the Willamette River. These factors contribute to the region's suitability for agriculture and its diverse plant and animal species.
How are cilia cells different to a simple cell?
Cilia cells are specialized cells that have hair-like structures called cilia that aid in movement or sensing stimuli. Simple cells do not have cilia and are basic cells that perform general functions within the body. Cilia cells are more complex and have specific functions related to moving substances or detecting signals.
Is mitochondria part of the endomembrane system?
No. The endomembrane system consists of the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus - i.e things that are formed within the cell. The mitochondria was originally formed from a captured bacterial cell - as it has it's own DNA and its own ribosomes (as well as very bacterial like proteins). It is a separate organelle on its own, although it will have connections with the endomembrane system it is not considered part of it.
What can mutations do and do not do?
Mutations can introduce genetic variation within a population, which can lead to diversity, adaptation, and evolution. However, mutations do not always result in beneficial changes and can also lead to genetic disorders or diseases.
Why arent virises classified into a kingdom?
Viruses are not classified into any of the kingdoms because they cannot live outside of a host cell (they depend on the host cell's DNA to reproduce and undergo metabolic reactions within it).

Why are viruses not included as part of the cell theory?
They arent alive
Are viruses carnivore omnivores or herbivores?
If I had to pick one, I'd say heterotrophic, but really they're not any of the above. Autotrophic (which includes hemosynthetic) and heterotrophic describe where a living thing gets its energy. Viruses aren't really living things. Also, they don't produce their own energy. Let's take poliovirus as an example. It consists of genetic material (RNA) inside a capside (a shell made of protein). It just floats until it binds to a receptor, gets taken up by a cell, and releases its RNA into the cell. All of this is done with the cell's energy. Then it uses the cell's supplies of molecules, machinery, and energy to replicate, making more copies of itself. It never actually produces ATP energy.
Why can you not kill flu with antibiotics?
Antibiotics are only for killing bacteria, they do not work on viruses which are the cause of the flu. Bacteria are living organisms and so poisons and chemicals can actually kill them. But flu viruses are non-living organisms so they can not be killed, they can only be inactivated by damage or physical blocking by antibodies (made by our immune systems) of the shapes of the structures viruses use to attach to a host's cells. Viruses need a host's cells to use to reproduce, if they can not attach to the cells, they will be inactivated. Antibiotics are not capable of inactivating them.
Are there any benefits living on Mars?
no there arent
Why arent puerto ricans living in the us?
Many are.
What are 10 steps to became a chef?
As far as I know, to be a chef there arent any steps. To be a chef, you only have to cook for a living. I went looking for the same answer. I cook for a living, but never considered myself a chef. But no training or whatever makes you a chef. Just cook for a living.

Why is it possible for some viral diseases remain undetected for years?
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 hijackers. 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. They can not make more viruses on their own. They are very small and can be considered microscopic. We have to use an electron microscope to see them as they are that small. This was not available until recently.
