No viruses are not alive, because they do not complete all of the seven life processes: Movement, Respiration, Sensitivity, Nutrition, Excretion, Reproduction and Growth.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

bc you can easily die from it if you have a disease or a condition. and you have newborns that are not immune into the world yet so they can get rlly sick from any virus.
