VIRUS AND BACTERIA

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ go through the lytic cycle and are considered to be nonliving.
A
viruses
B
bacteria cells
C
Archaea cells
D
prokaryotes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Viruses also lack the properties of living things: They have no energy metabolism, they do not grow, they produce no waste products, and they do not respond to stimuli. They also don’t reproduce independently but must replicate by invading living cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are two processes used by viruses to replicate: the lytic cycle and lysogenic cycle. Some viruses reproduce using both methods, while others only use the lytic cycle. In the lytic cycle, the virus attaches to the host cell and injects its DNA.

Detailed explanation-3: -When the lytic cycle is initiated, the virus cannot go back into the lysogenic cycle. Viral DNA/RNA is incorporated into the host in the lytic cycle; it is not in the lysogenic cycle. Cells are lysed in the lytic cycle; they’re not lysed in the lysogenic cycle.

Detailed explanation-4: -T4 Bacteriophage: A species of bacteriophages that can infect E. Ebola Virus: A long, worm-shaped RNA virus with a fatality rate of around 65%. SARS-CoV-2: A type of round, spiky virus commonly referred to as a “coronavirus” and responsible for the disease COVID-19. 09-Jan-2021
