Dodos are the best. I wish they still existed. Not sure HIV counts, though, since Viruses aren't really alive.

Scientifically speaking, they don't qualify as living. The cell is the basic unit of life, and viruses aren't cells. Also, viruses can't really do anything until they've infected something living.

Nope. They're not made up of living cells, but rather a core of either DNA or RNA, which is coated with protein. They don't respond to any stimuli, they don't grow, produce waste or have any sort of metabolism. Also, they can't reproduce on their own and must instead invade the cells of living beings in order to spread.

Sort of, but sort of not. They do respond to stimuli, in that some of them, at least, mutate to adapt to negative stressors that would otherwise prevent them from replicating. They don't quite meet the generally understood parameters of life, but they don't quite qualify as unliving, either. They're almost like the microbial version of AI.
