Answer:

Viruses are non-living when they are outside the host cell as they don't have any cellular machinery of their own. ... They take over the host cell machinery to replicate themselves, killing the host. That's why they are considered as link between living and non-living.

HOPE THAT IT WAS HELPFUL!!!!

MARK IT THE BRAINLIEST IF IT REALLY WAS!!!!

Answer and Explanation:

Viruses are non-cellular organisms that are characterised by having an inert crystalline structure outside the living cell. Once they infect a cell they take over the machinery of the host cell to replicate themselves, killing the host and act as kind of living organisms.

Hence, they are called the connecting link between living and non living organisms; as they show both properties in different conditions.
