virus is not added in microorgnis becouse virous are the connecting link between living and non living they are non living in outer space but become living when enters into any other organism.
kaileek:
Viruses are non-living when they are outside the host cell as they don't have any cellular machinery of their own. But when they are present inside the body of a host, they are living. They take over the host cell machinery to replicate themselves, killing the host. That's why they are considered to be on the borderline between living and non-living. Due to this reason, they are not included in the category of microorganisms.
