NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -In the lytic cycle, the DNA is multiplied many times and proteins are formed using processes stolen from the bacteria. While the lysogenic cycle can sometimes happen in eukaryotes, prokaryotes or bacteria are much better understood examples. A bacteriophage, or bacteria virus, injects its DNA into the bacteria.

Detailed explanation-2: -In a lytic cycle, the virus introduces its genome into a host cell and initiates replication by hijacking the host’s cellular machinery to make new copies of the virus. Once infection is complete, the newly replicated and assembled virus particles are released through lysis of the host cell into the surrounding waters.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the lytic cycle, the viral DNA exists as a separate free floating molecule within the bacterial cell, and replicates separately from the host bacterial DNA, whereas in the lysogenic cycle, the viral DNA is located within the host DNA.

Detailed explanation-4: -The lytic cycle involves the reproduction of viruses using a host cell to manufacture more viruses; the viruses then burst out of the cell. The lysogenic cycle involves the incorporation of the viral genome into the host cell genome, infecting it from within.

Detailed explanation-5: -The lytic cycle, or virulent infection, involves a virus taking control of a host cell and using it to produce its viral progeny, killing the host in the process.
