Viruses are considered at the borderline of living and non-living because they show both the characteristics of a living and a non-living. As they react like non-living in the free atmosphere but when they enter the body of a living organism then they show the features of a living organism and start reproduction.

Answer:A Virus remains as a particle or non-living entity when not in contact with a host, as soon as it enters the host system, it replicates like a living organism.

Hence, it is a connecting link between living and non-living.
