Answer: C.) They need the host cell to replicate

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. Even though they definitely replicate and adapt to their environment, viruses are more like androids than real living organisms.

Finally, it is also true that some fish live symbiotically with coral, luring prey for the coral to kill and eat.
