Not, Viruses are not considered "alive" because they lack many of the properties that scientists associate with living organisms. Primarily, they lack the ability to reproduce without the aid of a host cell, and don't use the typical cell- division approach to replication.

I dont think viruses should be classified as a living organism because they arent made up of cells, they dont grow, and they dont make their own energy. <span />

How does the presence of coal in Antarctica provide evidence for continental drift?
Ilya [14]

Answer:

There have been glacial deposits founded in the tropics and coal founded in Antarctica. This supports the theory of the Continental Drift, because coal originates from tropical plants, which can only be founded in the tropics. Additionally glacial deposits can only come from Antarctica, proving the theory.
