What else can I help you with?
Viruses have some of the properties of living organisms which is a characteristic of all organisms but NOT of viruses?
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.
Which is not the function of of the cytoskeleton?
Viruses have some, but not all, of the characteristics of living things.
What cells do the cell theory apply to?
The cell theory applies to all living cells, including those found in plants, animals, fungi, and single-celled organisms. It states that all living organisms are composed of one or more cells, cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living organisms, and all cells come from pre-existing cells.
Do all living things have cells?
No, not all living things have cells. While all living things are made up of cells, some organisms like viruses are considered living but do not have cells. Instead, viruses are composed of genetic material (DNA or RNA) enclosed in a protein coat.
Can mutations occur in jellyfish?
Mutations happen in ALL living things (and also in viruses)!!!!!!
Are viruses a living cell?
No, they are not alive at all.

Which animals are non-living?
All animals are living, but viruses are classified as non-living organisms.
Are Bacteria and viruses pokaryotes or eukaryotes?
Bacteria are prokaryotes. Viruses are not living organisms, virus is a virus, that is all.
Do viruses cause harm?
yes they are harmful for all living organism. but not at all.
Which is not the function of of the cytoskeleton?
Viruses have some, but not all, of the characteristics of living things.
Viruses do not contradict the idea that all living things are made of cells because?
viruses are not considered to be living organisms as they lack the cellular structure and cannot carry out cellular functions on their own. They can only replicate by hijacking the machinery of living cells. Therefore, viruses do not challenge the concept that all living things are made of cells.
What are the differances viruses and bacteria?
viruses are non living and bacteria are living organisms

Which is difference between bacteria and viruses that shows that bacteria are living organisms and viruses not?
Bacteria are able to reproduce on their own while viruses need a host to "hijack" so they can reproduce. Bacteria have metabolisms, catabolic and anabolic biochemical reactions going on in their cells all the time. Viruses do not. Bacteria can grow in size to a certain extent while viruses do not change in this regard. The definition of living things classify bacteria as a living thing, while viruses are not.
What are larger than viruses?
Bacteria, fungi, and parasites are larger than viruses. They are all types of microorganisms that can cause infections in humans and other living organisms.
What is one thing that all viruses have in common?
Something that ALL viruses have is germs and bacteria, if you are talking about the human body. It will also depend what kind of viruses you are talking about (stomach viruses, computer viruses, human body viruses, etc.). Hope this helped!
