Viruses do not have a mode of nutrition in the traditional sense, as they are not living organisms and cannot metabolize nutrients. Instead, they rely on host cells to replicate and propagate. When a virus infects a host cell, it hijacks the cellular machinery to produce new viral particles, utilizing the host's resources for its replication and assembly. Thus, viruses are considered obligate intracellular parasites.
