Because:
They aren't cells, well not like animal and plant ones. They are just DNA/RNA surrounded by protein
They have no metabolism, they have no energy needs, which makes them unlike living cells
They produce no waste, no energy going in means no energy coming back out again, which is also different to living cells
They don't reproduce by mitosis/meiosis, they can only replicate inside other cells
They don't grow, they stay as they are from birth until death
They don't respond to outside stimuli they just live their happy little lives, oblivious to everything around them

A prominence refers to a bright, large, gaseous feature projecting externally from the surface of the Sun, usually in a loop shape. Prominences are attached with the surface of the Sun in the photosphere and elongate outwards into the corona of the Sun.

The prominences are related to the discharge of the high energy constituents called a solar flare. These solar flares have been considered to influence electronic communication as their energy blends up the upper atmosphere of the Earth, making the radio transmissions weak and noisy.

Hence, the correct statements are prominences can disturb radio communications on Earth and prominences are loop-shaped.
