Viruses cannot replicate or carry out metabolic functions on their own. They depend on infecting host cells and hijacking the host's cellular machinery to replicate and produce more viruses.
Reproduce without a host animal's, plant's, or bacteria's cells (which they change to make them create the copies for them in the replication process).

Can a virus carry out all the life processes?
No, viruses cannot carry out all life processes on their own as they lack cellular machinery for functions like metabolism and reproduction. Viruses require a host cell to replicate and express their genetic material.
There are many parts of the human body that viruses cannot invade?
True
There are many parts of the body that viruses cannot invade?
True
What are two reasons that viruses are considered non living?

Can viruses reproduce by themselves?
No, viruses cannot reproduce by themselves. They must infect a host cell and hijack the cellular machinery to replicate. Viruses lack the cellular structures necessary for independent reproduction.
Does Music Oasis give viruses?

What viruses cannot?
They can not reproduce without a host as reproductive vector. They have no metabolism and do not preform cellular functions. Viruses are genetic material enclosed in a protein capsid.
What are pathogens cannot reproduce on their own?

Viruses
What cannot replicate without donated DNA?
Viruses
Can domestic animals cause computer viruses?
no they cannot :\
Why are viruses difficult to place in the category of living things?
Viruses are technically not living because they cannot reproduce without a host cell, they cannot move on their own, and they have no organeles.
Can a virus carry out all the life processes?
No, viruses cannot carry out all life processes on their own as they lack cellular machinery for functions like metabolism and reproduction. Viruses require a host cell to replicate and express their genetic material.

What are Pathogens that cannot be treated by antibiotics?
Antibiotics will not work in viruses.
What are difference between bacteria and viruses.?
-viruses and alive but bacteria is -viruses spread but dont multiply or change in your body, bacteria are alive and are often evolving -viruses cannot be treated, but bacteria can be eliminated with chemincals and anitbiotics
