Answer:
Give at least 3 reasons why viruses are considered non-living and therefore NOT classified into the Linnaean system of life.
Viruses as we know that they are micro-organism but they are not produced from cell
Viruses does not grow rather undergo replication by multiplying into several number within minutes
also they rely on host energy as they could not produce energy needed for their usage.
Explanation:
Every living organism are made up of cells which makes it the fundamental unit of life where virus does not fall into such category, Growth is an essential characteristics of every living organisms, viruses only replicate rather they does not undergo growth.
The plants would ultimately die.
Although the plants won't need oxygen to make photosynthesis occur, it would be unable to perform cellular respiration. They will be unable to respire and produce the product of cellular respiration which is CO2 + H2O + Energy. These are necessary reactants for photosynthesis. Eventually, photosynthesis will consume more CO2 than it produces with cellular respiration. They won't have a sufficient food source and eventually die off.
All living things are made up in cells?
