A virus mutating indicates that it has the trait of "It evolves." Viruses are not considered living organisms in the same way that cells or organisms are, as they do not grow, develop, or use energy in the traditional sense. Instead, they replicate by hijacking the cellular machinery of a host organism. Therefore, the correct response to the question would be:
It evolves.
