6. read the statement from a scientific researcher. many organisms depend on other organisms to live,
such as bacteria that live inside cells, and fungi that form parasitic relationships. these organisms are
reliant on their hosts to complete their life cycles. viruses also rely on host cells in a similar manner.
which argument about viruses is supported by the researcher's statement?
(a) viruses create new host cells.
(b) viruses respond to their environments.
(c) viruses are nonliving.
(d) viruses are living.

the argument that the researcher supports in this statement is that the Viruses are nonliving

Answer : Option C

Explanation:

Viruses are organic structures and they are often termed as "organisms at the end of life". Virus is not considered a living as it does not have a biological machinery to replicate.It is a parasite and it needs a host to replicate.

The virus tries its entry through the wounds, respiratory tracts and by passing through insects.

The complete virus particle is known as virion which consists of a nucleic acid surrounded by a capsid, Virus first attach themselves to a host through their surface.

interphase   is the cell cycle stage in which the cell acquires nutrients, creates and uses proteins and other molecules and starts the process of cell division by replicating the dna. it is the longest stage in the eukaryote cell cycle.

the following   can go wrong during interphase:   a base pair could be mismatched during the duplication process causing a mutation.   correct answer: c
