Answered by Nishika20

Answer:

Viruses are responsible for some of the most dangerous and deadly diseases including influenza, ebola, rabies, and smallpox. Despite their potential to kill, these potent pathogens are in fact considered to be non-living, as alive as the screen that you are reading this article on.

How is this possible? How can something as nasty as a virus spread so fast, reproduce and infect other living things but not be considered a living creature? The answer is complex and has been a subject of debate since the moment they were first named in 1898.

The argument hinges on what we mean by ‘alive’.
