Detailed explanation-1: -The lysogenic cycle: The phage infects a bacterium and inserts its DNA into the bacterial chromosome, allowing the phage DNA (now called a prophage) to be copied and passed on along with the cell’s own DNA.

Detailed explanation-2: -A prophage is a bacteriophage genome which is inserted and integrated into the circular bacterial DNA chromosome. This is a latent form of a phage in which the viral genes are present in the bacterium without causing disruption of the bacterial cell. Prophage occurs during lysogenic cycle.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lysogenic viral DNA which has integrated into the host genome is referred to as. a prophage.

Detailed explanation-4: -The lysogenic cycle definition is a viral reproductive stage where the virus’s DNA is being replicated using the host cell’s DNA. During lysogenic infection, the virus uses the host to help copy its DNA or genetic information, but it is not producing any proteins.

Detailed explanation-5: -A lysogenic cell contains viral DNA, a prophage, integrated into the host chromosome. The integration of phage DNA into host DNA occurs in much the same fashion as seen in transformation, transduction or conjugation. Filamentous virus is incapable of causing a lytic infection.
