A virus is on the VERGE of life and death..
It is neither alive nor dead...
It remains in dormant state till it can find a host...then it takes the machinery it is devoid of for self replication.... it kindof dictates the host cell into bringing about the suicide of the host cell....
Hope it helped u : )

Answer: Viruses are not living things. Viruses are complicated assemblies of molecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates, but on their own they can do nothing until they enter a living cell. Without cells, viruses would not be able to multiply. Therefore, viruses are not living things.
