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".
