A virus is considered as a living organism and an obligate parasite when inside a host cell. But virus is not classified along with bacteria or fungi.
What are the characters of virus that are similar to non - living objects?
Answer:
Viruses are considered as living when they are inside a host cell but outside the host cells they are referred to as non - living objects because of the following reasons:
- Their inert nature.
- Their inability to reproduce.
- Lack of cellular organisation.
