Viruses are not alive because they are missing more then two of the 6 characteristics of life. so they can not be alive/biotic.

# data[].attributes.body
Viruses are not alive because they don't have all of the six characteristics for life. So they can't be alive.

I dont think viruses are alive because they dont have most of the 6 characteristics of life, they are missing more than 2.

# data[].attributes.body
I do not think viruses are alive because they do not grow because they don't have enough food and since they don't have enough food they do not eat or create food they are not living and they can only reproduce with something that is living so I do not think this counts as a living thing

I do not think viruses are alive because they do not grow, develop, reproduce, or use energy.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that viruses are alive. Even if the way they perform the 6 characteristics of life isn't like much other living things, they still have them. They have DNA, They can use energy, they can reproduce (even though it needs a host, I think it still counts) They can grow and develop even if its just a little bit, and they respond to their environment.

# data[].attributes.body
I think viruses are not living or a biotic because they do not produce their own food, and don't t grow. They do have DNA and reproduce. However, they can only reproduce with a host. They are also not made of cells. They are made of genetic material.

# data[].attributes.body
I think viruses are somewhat alive as they do reproduce (though with the help of the host) Viruses also contain small parts of DNA and, they also adapt, grow and develop as some viruses have bounced back in new ways even after vaccines and what not. Though they do not use energy and have cells I think viruses are still at the very least, somewhat alive.

# data[].attributes.body
They are abiotic because e they don't have the 6 characteristics  of living things. They are not alive

# data[].attributes.body
They are abiotic because they do not have cells, don't use energy, can't really reproduce, don't really respond to their surroundings, and don't grow. They only have DNA.

# data[].attributes.body
Viruses are not alive because they do not have all of the 6 charecteristics of living things.

# data[].attributes.body
Viruses are NOT alive or abiotic because they do not have all the 6 characteristics of living things that all biotic things must have.

# data[].attributes.body
Need energy, reproduce, have cells, have DNA, Grow and develop, adapt to an environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Viruses are not alive because they did not obtain all 6 characteristics of life. Therefore they are non-living.

# data[].attributes.body
Viruses are non-living because, they do not exceed all 6 of the charatrristics that define whether something is living or not. For example, unlike all living things, viruses do not have cells, nor do they respond to their enviorment.

# data[].attributes.body
Viruses are not alive because they do not possess all six characteristics of a living thing They don't respond to their surroundings or eat and take in energy.

# data[].attributes.body
viruses are abiotic(not alive) because they do not have all 6 characteristics of life. The only thing that relates them to a living thing is that they have genetic material (DNA and RNA)  and protein.  Viruses do NOT have cells, they do not grow and develop (they do change though), they don't respond to environment, and they can not reproduce without the help of a host cell.

# data[].attributes.body
i think viruses are alive because they can grow and adapt to there surroundings and because they have there own dna which means it's alive.

# data[].attributes.body
viruses are abiotic because they don't have all of the characteristics of living things.  they are living because they contain DNA, they are able to reproduce, they are able to mutate,  and they grow and develop over time. They are not a virus because they don't have cells and they don't consume energy.

# data[].attributes.body
Viruses are abiotic because they don't have the six Characters of living things They cannot reproduce without a host and they don't respond to the environment, they only exist because DNA and RNA are found at the core of the viruses. And they also cannot function on their own and they're not even made of cells therefore viruses are abiotic.

# data[].attributes.body
Viruses are Abiotic, they do not possess the six characteristics of living things and only exist because DNA and RNA both experience natural selection. Most viruses do not use energy, grow, they cannot replicate without a host they evolve but do not respond to stimuli, they only have structure related to their genetic material, and do not adapt to their environment. Viruses use these hosts like tiny factories and force that host to make new virus cells instead of making healthy new cells.This cycle is called the Lytic Cycle, which is why we get sick. Not only this but viruses are able to crystalize and remain dominant. Therefore, viruses are not living things and cannot function by themselves.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that viruses are not alive because the are acellular and do not have cell and most living things are made up of cells and these viruses meet some of the characteristics of life and they do not meet some characteristics of life this is why I think that viruses are not alive.

they are not alive because in the video it said they do not respond to the environment.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that viruses are not biotic or abiotic. viruses are not and are not made of cells, they contain dna, they do not obtain energy, they can reproduce using a host, they do not grow or develop, they evolve but do not respond to stimuli,  they only have structure related to their genetic material. ticks need a host to survive as well and will die without a host but they are considered living. some amphibians and fish can freeze during a hibernating state and they are still considered living beings. frogs, dragon flies, mosquitos and other animals rely on water to reproduce and they are still living. they are exceptions to every rule so for now viruses are not considered living but they may be in the future. i cant definitively decide if they are either so i will consider them neither for now.

Viruses are abiotic because they do not possess all of the six characteristics of living things; unlike a raccoon, they are not made of cells, cannot take in energy, and cannot reproduce asexually or sexually (they need a host cell). They do identify with the other three characteristics of life; like a raccoon, they do have DNA, they can mutate (grow/develop), and can respond to their environment. Therefore, since viruses do not have all of the six characteristics of living things, they cannot be categorized as biotic (living), so they must be abiotic (non-living.)

i think viruses are partially alive because they have some characteristics like the ability to evolve and reproduce, but lack others.

I don't think viruses are alive because even though they do mutate and multiply, that's only with the help of a host, also they don't have most of the characteristic of let's say a plant cell or animal cell.
