Problem
Describe one feature that biologists consider essential for something to be alive. What is this feature? Can you give an example of how this feature contributes to something being alive? Viruses are not considered to be truly alive; is this a feature that they have?
I am dyslexic, and I am having trouble understanding this. Please provide examples in great detail or step-by-step reason for what makes someone alive. I understand viruses are not truly alive because they must have a host to survive. I have not taken science since high school.
