B, they must enter the cell of another organism.

Viruses are nonliving, meaning they cannot reproduce with other viruses. It must have a host cell to inject it's DNA into in order to reproduce.

Answer is : B

Viruses are non-living infectious agents that only reproduce when present inside the body of another organism. Viruses need a host to infuse their DNA to replicate. Outside the host body, they crystallized.
