A.Yes, viruses are alive because they can reproduce.

B.No, viruses are not alive because they rely on a host organism to be able to reproduce.***my answer***

C.Yes, viruses are alive because they have genetic material.

D.No, viruses are not alive because they do not have genetic material nor can they reproduce.

1.No, viruses are not alive because they rely on a host organism to be able to reproduce.

2.reproduction
3.chloroplast
4.Both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes.
5.mitochondrion
6.It helps recognize other cells.
7.It helps unicellular organisms move.
8.photosynthesis
9.Leaf cells have chloroplasts, but root cells do not.
sorry you will have to do the rest yourself don't want to get caught.

The whole answers please

guys if you have 10 questions on the cell unit test here are the answers trust me

1 No, viruses are not alive because they rely on a host organism to be able to reproduce.
2 reproduction
3 chloroplast
4 Both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes.
5 It helps recognize other cells.
6 It helps unicellular organisms move.
7 photosynthesis
8 Leaf cells have chloroplasts, but root cells do not.
9 & 10 you do it on your own
trust me i got all of them correct

I know i am not a teacher but..... i searched up the answer so here it is.. : So were they ever alive? Most biologists say no. 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. Even though they definitely replicate and adapt to their environment, viruses are more like androids than real living organisms. And here is the sight i got it from: khanacademy.org

In three to five sentences, explain why animal cells do not require a cell wall or a central vacuole for their functions.

In a plant cell, they have a cell wall that protects and gives strength to the cell and provides support to the plant. Plant cells also have a large organelle called a vacuole, which stores water, sugar, waste, and other substances; It presses against the inside of the cell which makes it more rigid and gives it its shape. Although, an animal doesn’t require both of those since an animal’s body has some kind of skeleton or other means of providing structure or support.
