Viruses are considered at the borderline between living and non living because they show both the characteristics of living and non living. As they reacts like non living in the free atmosphere but when they enter in the body of a living organism then they shows the features of a living organism and starts reproduction. Some special features of being a non living are that they do some functions like excretion and can't multiply by own.

Viruses are considered on the borderline of living and non living because only when they are inside a living cell do they fulfil the criteria of being regarded as living entities. Outside, they act as non living entities.
