Answer 1

Answer:

a) will be the answer I think. Viruses do not have their own machinery. They use the host machinery for their own use.

Some viruses like HIV use reverse transcriptase enzyme which makes DNA from RNA which is the opposite of Central Dogma of biology, which makes very difficult to make any vaccine for HIV.

Basically, mutations in viruses makes them easy to survive and difficult to kill.

Viruses are obligate parasites. They are living inside host but non- living outside host.

Explanation:

Central Dogma of biology

DNA ------> RNA-------> Protein.
