Detailed explanation-1: -Viruses infect all forms of organisms including bacteria, archaea, fungi, plants, and animals. Living things grow, metabolize, and reproduce. Viruses replicate, but to do so, they are entirely dependent on their host cells. They do not metabolize or grow, but are assembled in their mature form.
Detailed explanation-2: -Viruses can infect all types of life forms, from animals and plants to microorganisms, including bacteria and archaea. Viruses are infectious agents with both living and nonliving characteristics.
