Complete the following paragraph to describe the difference between the lytic and lysogenic cycle.
a. Upon inserting its (Click to select) into the target cell, the virus can proceed into one of two cycles of viral reproduction.
b. In the (Click to select), the virus immediately begins to use the resources of the host cell and most likely results in the destruct
of the host cell.
c. There are five stages to the lytic cycle. Stage 1, (Click to select), is when the structure of the proteins in the capsid allows it to
recognize and target specific cells for
infection.
d. In step 2, (Click to select), the genetic material of the virus enters the host cell either by direct means or by endocytosis.
e. In step 3, (Click to select), the virus hijacks the host cell's machinery to manufacture new capsid proteins.
f. Step 4, (Click to select), is the assemblage of new viruses, and Step 5 involves the (Click to select) of the new viruses.
g. In the (Click to select), the viral DNA integrates into the host cell genome after penetration.
h. Remaining inactive or (Click to select), viral reproduction is (Click to select) until some environmental factor signals the virus to
reenter the lytic cycle.



Answer :

Final answer:

The lytic cycle involves rapid viral replication and host cell lysis, while the lysogenic cycle integrates viral DNA into the host genome.


Explanation:

Lytic Cycle:

  1. Attachment: Virus attaches to host cell
  2. Penetration: Virus injects genetic material into host cell
  3. Biosynthesis: Virus replicates genetic material and assembles new viruses
  4. Maturation: New viruses are formed
  5. Lysis: Host cell bursts, releasing new viruses

Lysogenic Cycle:

Incorporates viral genome into host cell genome, remains dormant until triggered to enter lytic cycle by environmental factors.
