Hi buddy.Here is your answer
The characteristics of viruses are as follows
1)They are enclosed in a protective envelope
2)They are non cellular
3)They have a nucleic acid core containing DNA or RNA
4)They contain a protien coat called the caspid
5)They do not respire, they also donot metabolise and do not grow but they do reproduce
6)They have spikes which help them to attach to the host cell
7)Ribosomes and enzymes are absent which are needed for metabolism.
And all these are the characteristics of viruses. Hope this will help you

Characteristics of viruses:
- They can proliferate very quickly, but only in host cells that are still alive.
- They're mutable.
- They lack cytoplasm and other cellular organelles because they are acellular.
- They require the metabolic apparatus of the host cell to proliferate because they have no independent metabolism. To put it another way, viruses do not multiply and grow. Instead, fresh viral parts are created and put together inside the infected host cell.
- Most viruses only have one of DNA or RNA; they rarely have both.
- non-living things.
- Non-cellular.
- contain the capsid, a protein covering.
- possess a nucleic acid core made up of either DNA or RNA (one or the other - not both)
- only able to procreate when inside a HOST cell.
