<span>Organic materials found in soil such as dead plants, animal fesis, bacteria, and fungi cause decomposition in the soil or a decaying breakdown of organic materials which is needed for proper soil health. Decomposition releases small particles of microorganisms or detritus which other living organisms feed on and release energy as well as recycles inorganic materials back into the food chain. These small particles are so small that the naked eye cannot see. The process of photosynthesis is very important for the food chain. Healthy soil helps plants grow, decomposition feeds the plants, the sun provides energy which releases carbon dioxide so the plants can grow, and the plants release oxegen into the atmosphere which living organisms need to survive.</span>

Why are viruses considered nonliving but bacteria are considered living? Give to reasons.
Andreyy89
Viruses aren't made up of living cells, like plants and animals are, they either consist of DNA or RNA surrounded by coating of protein. Versus also like the properties of living things. They have no energy, they do not produce waste, and they do not respond to stimuli. they do not reproduce independently but must rely on invading living cells and feeding off a them.

Therefore, there are many reasons my viruses are considered non living but the biggest reason is because they cannot survive on their on and have to feed and get their nutrients off of living things

And bacteria is considered living because it can do all these things that viruses cannot do.
