Hey Friend,

Here Is Your answer,

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

➡Viruses are found wherever there is life and have probably existed since living cells first evolved.
➡The origin of viruses is unclear because they do not form fossils, so molecular techniques have been used to compare the DNA or RNA of viruses and are a useful means of investigating how they arose.
➡In addition, viral genetic material may occasionally integrate into the germline of the host organisms, by which they can be passed on vertically to the offspring of the host for many generations.
➡This provides an invaluable source of information for paleovirologists to trace back ancient viruses that have existed up to millions of years ago.

Answer:

Explanation:

"Virus are living organism" justify the statement:

Living organism

A cell or cells make up everything that is alive. To exist, they must gather and utilize energy. a special capacity to reproduce, develop, metabolize, respond to stimuli, adapt to the environment, move, and last but not least, a special ability to breathe.

Justification:

Since viruses can't develop or reproduce on their own, they are seen as existing somewhere in between. They cease to exist as a result. But once a virus reaches a live cell, it draws energy from the host cell and begins to replicate. Given that reproduction is a crucial aspect of living things, this renders them to be alive things.

Viruses are the infectious nucleoprotein particles that share only two fundamental characteristics of the living system, namely, the presence of nucleic acid as genetic material and the ability to replicate and produce their own copies. Because a virus only exists inside the host cell, it is typically thought of as being non-living.
