Explanation:

Viruses are not made of cells, cannot obtain materials and energy on their own in a non - host environment, do not maintain stable internal environments (homeostasis), do not grow and develop in a true sense, do not respond to internal or external stimuli in a biological way, and do not produce their own offspring through biological reproduction processes. Bacteria, protists, plants, animals, and fungi are all made of cells, obtain materials and energy, maintain homeostasis, grow and develop, respond to stimuli, and produce offspring.
