Respuesta :

Student A who believes viruses are non living organisms.

Explanation- Viruses are not made out of cells, they can't keep themselves in a stable state, they don't grow, and they can't make their own energy.

Student A is RIGHT because viruses are not living organisms.

  • All living organisms are composed of cells, and viruses do not have cells (they only have protein coats that protect their genetic material).

  • Viruses are entities that need to parasite the cells of different host organisms to survive.

  • In consequence, a virus cannot replicate in absence of a suitable host cell.

In conclusion, student A is RIGHT because viruses are not living organisms.
