Solution

The correct option is D

Virus


A virus is structurally, a protein coat surrounding a piece of DNA or RNA. Because of this structure, they are not considered as cells and do not obey the cell theory.

The cell theory states that all living things are made of cells, cells are the basic units of structure and function of living things, and that all cells come from pre-existing cells.
