On an x-ray, lytic lesions are light areas found in otherwise dense bone. This suggests something has destroyed or replaced that part of bone. There are both cancerous and noncancerous causes of lytic lesions.

The lytic cycle is when the destruction of infected cells and its membranes is taking place. This usually takes place within the host DNA.

That is an infection that causes cell membrane breakdown (lysis) in the infected tissue.

The lytic cycle of infection occurs when more viruses are produced and the host cell is destroyed. This is the phenomenon that occurs in viral illnesses.


What are two ways that viruses cause infections?

The two ways that viruses cause infection are by lytic infection and lysogenic infection. The virus can enter into a cell, make a copy of itself and the cause the cell to burst in a lytic infection. When a virus embeds its DNA into the DNA of a host cell and replicates, it is a lysogenic infection.

How do virus benefit from inserting their genetic material into a host cell?

It all depends on the virus. It may be a lytic or a lysogenic infection. In a lytic infection, the virus inserts its DNA into host cell and replicate itself until the cell bursts and releases the new copies to infect other host cells. In a lysogenic infection, the virus inserts its DNA and gains control over the host cell, shutting it down and makes copies of itself like lytic infection, but the host cell does not burst.
