Is a virus a living organism?why?

Answer 1

Viruses are not living things.

Explanation :

Viruses are made with molecules (complex assemblies) but they are dependant on the living being whom they are entering. They can't multiply themselves without cells. Therefore, viruses are not living things.

Answer 2

Hello! How r u?

Step-by-step explanation:

a virus is a submicroscopic infectious agent that replicates ONLY inside the living cells of an organism. In my opinion I would say no, only because it can duplicate itself once it has become the host of the living organism and make them sick, and will soon be contagious doesn't mean it's an living thing.

Happy to Help!
