What happens in the lytic cycle?
A
the spacecraft shaped virus attaches to the host cell then leaves
B
the spacecraft virus kills the host cell
C
the spacecraft shaped virus attaches to the host cells and as it leaves it kills the host cell
D
the spacecraft virus attaches to the host cell injects DNA as the virus leaves it kills the host cell
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The host cell is destroyed in the lytic cycle. The lytic cycle is a mode of viral replication in which a virus produces many copies of itself in the host cell and those copies proceed to burst the host cell on their way out. This bursting destroys the cell and may cause some of the symptoms of the viral infection.

Detailed explanation-2: -Once a virus gets into a host’s body, it travels along the surfaces of cells until its proteins begin to bind with receptors on the cells. The virus and the cells then fuse, allowing the DNA or RNA inside the virus to enter the cells, where it begins to reproduce.
