What are the properties of Life:

First Property - Order/Organization

All living things are composed of one or more cells, which are the basic units of structure and function in living things.

Second Property - Metabolism

All chemical reactions occurring within an organism to convert nutrients into energy and essential molecules needed for growth, repair, and functioning.

Third Property - Response to Stimuli

Organisms responding to internal and external stimuli, such as changes in temperature, light, or the presence of food or danger.

Forth Property - Homeostasis

The ability of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in external conditions

Fifth Property - Reproduction

The ability of an organism to produce new individuals, ensuring the continuation of their species.

Sixth Property - Growth and Development

The process by which organisms increase in size and undergo various stages of development over their lifespan

Seventh Property - Evolutionary Adaptation

How an individual adapts to its environment

Because it doesn't have any of the Properties of Life

Why is a Virus not a human?

-not made of cells
-consists of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat

Why is a virus not a life via "Cellular Organization"

-relies on a host cell's environment

Why is a virus not a life via "Metabolism"

-depends on the host cell's environment

Why is a virus not a life via "Homeostasis"

-it replicates by assembling new virus particles within host cells

Why is a virus not a life via "Growth and Development"

-reproduces by hijacking host cells to produce new virus particles

Why is a virus not a life via "Reproduction"

-interacts with host cells through binding

Why is a virus not a life via "Response to Stimuli"
