A biosphere is the sum of all the ecosystems established on planet Earth.

An ecosystem is an area in which the plants and animals all interact to create a living environment. Therefore ecosystem is a smaller unit of earth, all ecosystems together form the earth.

The branch of biology that studies the different structures and functions of the cell is called Cell Biology or Cytology.

 A cell is the smallest unit of life that can replicate independently, and cells are often called the "building blocks of life"

Cell Biology deals with :

• Life cycle 

• Structure and organisation of cell organelles and their physiological properties. 

• Metabolic processes 

• Interactions with their environment 

• Signalling pathways.

Viruses are responsible for some of the most dangerous and deadly diseases including influenza, ebola, rabies and smallpox.

Despite their potential to kill, these potent pathogens are in fact considered to be non-living.

Reasons:

1. Viruses don't have any cells, like living organisms do. They have protein coats but no organelles or other cellular machinery. Just a little DNA packet.

2. Viruses can't produce new proteins, DNA, or RNA and therefore are unable to reproduce on their own. They need infected cells' machinery to make all of these and produce new virons.

3. Viruses have no metabolic activity. They don't use or convert energy and have no ongoing interior processes. They're basically just inert structures until they impact a potential host cell.
