Answer:

D. Has genetic information and is made of organic molecules

Step-by-step explanation:

Although viruses are not classified as living things, they share two important traits with living things. They have genetic material, and they can evolve.

Viruses are assembles of organic molecules that consist of some short strands of RNA or DNA encapsulated within a protein shell. They are often referred to as if they were living organisms, but they don't meet the criteria listed above for living things.
