For many decades, viruses have been speculated to be neither living nor non-living. This is because they possess characteristic features of both living and non-living. At first glance, under an electron microscope, viruses almost look like a piece of machinery that would rightfully belong in any industrial backdrop. The top part, which is called a protein coat, can take various shapes that range from icosahedral, helical, to prolate and more. This gives it an almost “non-organic” appearance.

Because viruses need a host just to live, like a human. They are non-living things
