Answer:

Well if your saying "NOT A LIVING THING" here is my thought

Explanation:

Virurses host to living things and cells, (think of venom the movie) they infect life forms, from animals and plants to microorganisms, including bacteria and archaea. Now your probably saying "wait that's an argument that viruses are a living thing," I just want to say the facts first.

My thought on viruses are not living things, viruses dont have blood or organs, nor a brain. Their like plants they feed off sun and water, then die after their seeds fall. In this case they find a animal feed off their organs and infect parts of the body. Then die after a bunch of other viruses go into the body, then pooped out and repeated. They wait for some thing to eat or touch ,then entering the body. They dont move just what ever they touch is infected. AND they dont create their own energy or wast.

Hope fully this will help. you can use this to put into your own words and take parts out of it.

What type of clouds are outside today

It would depend.

The weather might be different form mine. I can give you the four main types of clouds there are to help you identify them.

Cirrus clouds are wispy, feather like clouds. They are higher than the other types of clouds.

Stratus clouds are low level clouds that are light gray. They might cause fog.

Cumulus clouds are puffy, white clouds.

Cumulonimbus could are very tall clouds that produce T-Storms. They are a very dark gray.

There are other types of clouds, but these were the four I learned.
