Budding and Lysis.
They don't have their own metabolism and they can't reproduce on their own, two reasons for which they are obligatory parasites. They have to infect other cells with metabolisms to reproduce.
Two ways are sexual and asexual.

Sex
by budding and sexually
Viruses can reproduce by either the lytic cycle, which involves the virus taking over the host cell to replicate itself and destroy the cell in the process, or through the lysogenic cycle, where the viral DNA is integrated into the host cell's DNA and can remain dormant until triggered to replicate.
by spreading bacteria
Bacteria are prokaryotic type of organisms. They reproduce by binary fission. In place of nucleus, they have a single DNA molecule called nucleoid. Viruses are living only inside a cell. They divide by producing multiple copies of their DNA.
There are two main methods. They are sexual and asexual reproduction.
a host Cell
Yes, viruses require a host in order to reproduce. They cannot replicate on their own and rely on infecting a host cell to reproduce and spread.
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.
