Based on what I learned, normal cells are just that - normal cells.
Viruses are not cells however. They are sort of like a genetic code that infects a normal cell to help sustain itself. To put it in another way, a virus doesn't do anything on its own - it's not even a living thing. It needs a host (the cell) to become active so to speak.
