Summary Introduction

Introduction: Temperate bacteriophages are the type of bacteriophage that can display a lysogenic lifecycle. These phages remain dormant until some period of infection.

When phage nucleic acid is incorporated into the nucleic acid of itshost cell and is replicated when the host DNA is replicated, this is considered part of which cycle?a. lytic cycleb. virulence cyclec. lysogenic cycled. cell cycle                                                                                                            e. multiplication cycle
A prophage replicates  a. along with its host as long as the lytic genes are not being expressed  b. along with its host as long as the lytic genes are being expressed  c. independent of its host as long as the lytic genes are being expressed . d. independent of its host as long as the lytic genes are not being expressed .
During the lysogenic cycle of lambda (1) phage the phage genome is integrated in the host chromosome where it is passed on to daughter cells through binary fission. the phage DNA is copied and accumulates in the cytoplasm. Then a trigger causes capsid proteins to be made and phages are assembled. the product of one prophage gene is made and it activates most of the other prophage genes. the viral genes immediately turn the host cell into a lambda-producing factory. Then the host lyses. 0000
