The virus that causes chicken pox contains dna. it reproduces inside the cells of living organisms. the virus is not made of cells and does not eat or breathe. why isn’t the virus considered to be a living thing?

Viruses lack the properties of living things:

1. They have no energy metabolism

2. They do not grow

3. They do not respond to stimuli

4. They do not reproduce independently- they have to replicate by invading living cells.

there are mainly three domains in biological classification namely; archaea, bacteria, and eukarya.

archaea includes all the prokaryotic cells which are characterized by their lipid membranes. they have branched hydrocarbon which is attached to glycerol through an ether linkage.

bacteria includes all the prokaryotic cells, the cell membrane of which are made up of the unbranched fatty acid chain. in addition, they are attached to glycerol through an ester bond.

eukarya includes all the eukaryotic cells, that is, the cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound cell organelles.

they can be autotrophic as well as heterotrophic, unicellular as well as multicellular

they include kingdoms like protista, plantae, animalia, fungi et cetera.
