Give an example of Non-living thing giving any two characteristics of living things?
living: plants, human beings, animals, and mushroomsnonliving: glass, bread, rocks, and airplanes.A virus is an example of a non-living thing that shows some of the characteristics of the living things.
What is a tiny particle that has characteristics of both living and nonliving things?
This is (generally) referring to a VIRUS particle. Viruses can reproduce (a characteristic of living organisms) but may also be crystallised (a characteristic of non-living organisms). For this reason, a good number of scientists prefer not to talk of a virus as a living thing and even find discord classifying it under the normal taxonomic concepts and rules.
Which is Ebola eukaryote or prokaryote?
Ebola is NOT a eukaryote. Ebola is NOT a prokaryote. Ebola IS a VIRUS. ALL Viruses are NOT considered either prokaryotes or eukaryotes because they lack the characteristics of living things - (except the ability to replicate and to do that they have to hijack another living cell).
What characteristics does a living thing have to have to be classified as a living thing?
C-cells H -homeostasis A-able to grow and develop R-respiration A-adaptability C-can move T-take in food E-excrete R-reproduce S-sensitivity
Is Ebola prokaryote or eukaryote?

Microscopic particle that invades a cell and often destroys it?
A virus is a microscopic being that can invade and destroy a cell. Viruses have some, but not all, of the characteristics of living things.

Virus is living or nonliving?
A virus is considered non-living. It does not have all the characteristics of a living thing unlike bacteria. Viruses need living cells to reproduce while any living things can reproduce (asexually or not).
Why don't scientist classify virus as living things?
Scientists do not classify viruses as living things because they lack key characteristics of living organisms, such as the ability to reproduce and carry out metabolic processes on their own. Viruses are considered biological entities that require a host cell to replicate.
Why is it not really correct to call a virus a microbe?
It is incorrect to call a virus a microbe because a microbe is a living organism, while a virus is not. Viruses do not exhibit all the characteristics necessary to be classified as a living organism.
Unlike living things a virus does not make or use?
Unlike living things a virus does not make or use genetic material such as DNA. Viruses do not create their own DNA.
Which kingdom do virus belong to and characteristics of that kingdom?
Since they are not living, they are not classified and placed in a kingdom.
Which of these are not a living organism earthworm ecoli virus sea cucumber?
Of all these things, the virus is the only non-living thing. Viruses are not living organisms. E.coli is a bacteria and living.
What are living but dead things?
Some would say a virus.
What is a nonliving particle that causes a disease?
Viruses are considered to be non-living things, and are capable of causing disease. The reason viruses are not considered living is because they lack many of the characteristics of life until they infect a host cell.
Which is Ebola eukaryote or prokaryote?
Ebola is NOT a eukaryote. Ebola is NOT a prokaryote. Ebola IS a VIRUS. ALL Viruses are NOT considered either prokaryotes or eukaryotes because they lack the characteristics of living things - (except the ability to replicate and to do that they have to hijack another living cell).
