Its not something anyone ever really considers.. =P Good question!
I assume the host DNA just floats down and interacts with other molecules and eventually degrades into its constituent parts. The remains are likely taken up by other bacteria and used again.
Lytic.
Answer this question… The lytic cycle results in the immediate death of a host cell.
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.
The last step in the lytic cycle is that new viruses begin to be made
The lytic cycle involves the immediate replication of the virus and eventual destruction of the host cell, while the lysogenic cycle involves the integration of the virus's genetic material into the host cell's genome, leading to longer-term dormancy. Lytic cycle results in rapid production of new viral particles, while lysogenic cycle allows the virus to replicate along with the host cell's DNA until a trigger induces the lytic cycle.
causes Disease
yes
The host cell is destroyed.
A lytic virus will destroy its' host cell at the end of the lytic cycle.
lytic infection
A lytic virus will destroy its' host cell at the end of the lytic cycle.
The lytic cycle is a process that viruses use to replicate within a host cell. It is not a characteristic of bacteria.
