today i am going to introduce viruses as they are micro organisms,but they are little more special as they are connecting link between living and non-living beings.
That is the most special trait of viruses besides few more ,i''ll tell little later .
Viruses canot breathe or move like other living organism ,that is little unusual now the question comes ,how come they are living ? as you might be knowing reproduction is considered as single most symptom for a living and strangely viruses qualify for that ,that means they reproduce but again very interesting fact is associated with it . viruses cannot reproduce on their own and they need living environment for that ,i.e., they can reproduce inside a living organism .
the living organism can be an animal or a plant cell and on the basis where they are thriving they are known as animal virus or plant virus respectively.
viruses can have both DNA or RNA as the genetic material.and again on this basis viruse are DNA viruses or RNA viruses.
mode of reproduction is complicated and mainly taken as asexual mode of reproduction only one has is little debated that mode is called conjugation.
