They can reproduce.
They have genetic material. (Novanet)
One of the characteristics is they contain genetic material (DNA), which is a characteristic that all living things must have in order to be considered living. And also when inside a host, they are able to reproduce, which all living things must be able to do.
Cell division and protein synthesis are activities that are characteristic of cells but not viruses. Cells can undergo mitosis or meiosis to reproduce, while viruses rely on host cells to replicate. Cells contain the machinery for protein synthesis, while viruses hijack the host cell's machinery for their own replication.
One exception to the characteristic of life is viruses. Viruses are considered non-living because they cannot carry out the basic functions of life on their own and require a host cell to replicate.
The lytic cycle is a process that viruses use to replicate within a host cell. It is not a characteristic of bacteria.
only one? i would say no VIRUSES... :)

It is difficult because viruses lack the ability to replicate themselves and theey lacks energy metabolism and other pathways that living things have. Viruses are totally depending on their host. If they want to replicate, they have to infect the host.

Viruses, such as herpes, can also cause skin infections. Specimens for viral cultures are mixed with commercially-prepared animal cells in a test tube. Characteristic changes to the cells caused by the growing virus help identify the virus.
No virus no matter what kind can perform metabolic activities independently.
