Why are viruses not considerd living?
because they gain the 7 characteristics only when they enter a body and they don't have a proper cell structure.
How a virus inters your body and 'how it reproduces in your body'?
Viruses are like parasites. They always need host to reproduce and everything. First, they enter through any kind of opening in body, like wound, or mouth. Then the viruses send in their DNA's into uninfected cells using a protein fork. Then the cell is infected, and is forced to produce more viruses. When there are no more resources to produce more viruses in the cell, viruses burst out and the cell dies. This repeats until the infected organism dies.
What attracts a virus to a cell?
Once viruses are in your body, they are attracted to cells because they see a cell as a pleasant host. Viruses are not technically living because, even though they carry out many of the processes that living things do, they cannot do this by themselves, which is why they need another host body. A virus will attach itself to one of your cells, and inject it's DNA into the cell, causing it to become a virus-making factory. Once enough viruses are made, the cell bursts open and hundreds of new viruses are released throughout your body.
How are viruses harmful to living cells?
Viruses can reproduce very quickly. When reproducing they enter a living cell and they inject their genetic material.
Viruses enter animal cells by?
Viruses enter animal cells by attaching to specific receptor molecules on the cell surface, which allows for the virus to enter the cell through either membrane fusion or endocytosis. Once inside the cell, the virus uses the cellular machinery to replicate and spread.
What can viruses reprouduce?
Viruses don't actually reproduce by themselves. When they enter somebodies body, they take over a cell and sort of hack its system to make the cell produce copies of the virus and not itself. That is why you get sick.

Does a hidden viruses enter a cell and immediately begin to multiply?
yes

When do viruses reproduce?
viruses can not reproduce without the help of a living cell(host).they remain inert or dead(in-active) when they are in free environment or outside the body(host).when they enter the living cell or in some cases insert their nucleic acid into the host,it takes over the host's biosynthetic machinery and forces it to reproduce essential viral components and after proper assembly the cell burst and viruses leave the cell to infect other cells

Why do virus enter in body?
Viruses enter the body to replicate and propagate their genetic material. They typically do so by invading host cells, using the cell's machinery to reproduce and spread. This process often triggers an immune response, which can lead to symptoms of illness. Ultimately, viruses rely on host organisms for survival and reproduction, making human and animal bodies prime targets.
Do viruses only reproduce within one cell?
Virus cannot replicate themselves. They should enter a living cell
What is responsible for the specificity of viruses?
Viruses have proteins in their capsid which match proteins in the membrane of their preferred host. This produces the ability to "dock" and then enter the host cell.
Why can a virus enter some types of human cells and not others?
Some viruses are very specific to certain cells. The cell has proteins on it's surface and a virus will use it a docking station to be able to enter the cell. Some cells don't have that protein and the virus can not enter the cell.
