Answer:

Viruses have been concluded non-living

Explanation:

It is true viruses have living qualities such as reproduction and environment adaptability. However, they lack being composed of cells and the inability to undergo homeostasis. Because a virus contains both, but also doesn't meet the requirements to be one or the other is why it's said to be in the "grey area".

  • To allow the fluid to move across the eye, someone should flush their eye for 10 to 15 minutes while attempting to keep their eyes open.
  • Some chemicals, such strong alkalis, may call for 60 minutes of flushing.
