Answer» Solution :Viruses did not FIND a place in classification since they are not truly "living.. Even in the FIVE kingdom classification of Whittaker there is no mention of viruses and VIROIDS. Normally, we UNDERSTAND living as those organisms that have a cell structure. The viruses are non cellular organisms that are characterised by having an inert crystalline structure outside the living cell. Once they infect a cell they TAKE over the machinery of the host cellto replicate themselves, killing the host.
