What happens at the end of the lytic cylce?
During the lytic cycle, the host cell eventually bursts open (lysis), releasing newly formed viruses to infect other cells. This results in the death of the host cell.
What happens at the end of lytic cycle?
The last step in the lytic cycle is that new viruses begin to be made
What does an active virus destroy a cell?
A lytic virus will destroy its' host cell at the end of the lytic cycle.
What active virus will destroy its?
A lytic virus will destroy its' host cell at the end of the lytic cycle.
Does the avian flu have a lytic or lysogenic cycle?
I believe it is lytic. Think: colds are fast acting; they don't sit in your cell for years on end. This means they are lytic (fast acting).
What happens to the host cell at the end of a lysogenic cycle?
At the end of the lysogenic cycle, the host cell typically remains intact and viable. The viral DNA is integrated into the host's genome as a prophage, allowing it to replicate along with the host's DNA during cell division. This can lead to the production of new viral particles later if the virus enters the lytic cycle, causing eventual cell lysis. However, during the lysogenic phase, the host cell continues to grow and divide without immediate harm.
Describe the sequence of events that occurs during a lytic infection?
The easiest way to understand how viruses replicate is to study the life cycles of viruses called bacteriophages (bacteria eaters). Bacteriophages replicate by either a lytic cycle or a lysogenic cycle. The difference in these two cycles is that the cell dies at the end of the lytic cycle or the cell remains in the lysogenic cycle. The virus remains "hidden".
What happens at the end of the cycle?
the host cell becomes a virus
What happens at the end of the lyitc cycle?
the host cell bursts and dies
How does the lytic cycle show that viruses are not living things?
The lytic cycle involves the viruses injecting nucleic acid into the cell to make the cell "sick". The lytic cycle proves viruses are non-living because the only way the cells reproduced at the end of the cycle was because of the host cell. A virus cannot reproduce on its own (only can with a host cell) as to which any living thing could. Viruses are non-living organisms and the lytic cylce proves just that. Viruses alos contain protogramo fluids that kill the cell. These fluids are what mostly make a virus considered non-living for reasons scientists have not yet come to an understanding to. Hope this helped you!:)
What is the sequence of events that occurs during a lytic infection?
In a lytic infection, the virus begins by attaching to a host organism or cell, (for the sake of this example: on a bacterium), and injects its genetic material into the host, leaving its capsid (covering) '' ghost '' on the outside of the bacterium. Inside the bacterium the virus uses enzymes to cut up the original cell's DNA and then hijacks the cell's materials and processes to make new copies of its own DNA and proteins. When many copies have been made they self assemble inside the host and new capsids surround the genetic material. Then the viruses lyse (cut open) the cell in exiting it and the cell that was hijacked generally dies. Some viruses pick up a membranous coat of cell membrane on exiting the cell. This allows them to attach to a new host and the cycle begins again with the infection of a new host cell.Simply put, the steps are:attachment: virus attaches on to host cell surface injection: virus gains entry into the host celldisruption of protein machineryutilize the stored metabolic energy of the host to create progeny virusesprogeny viruses are then ready to infect other host cells they move out of the host cell by breaking open the host cell's membrane (lysis)The end result is a lytic infection.See the related questions below for more details about the Lytic Cycle of viral infections.
What are two ways a virus can enter a host cell?
Viruses can cause lytic infections or lysogenic infections. When a virus enters a cell to make copies of itself, causing the cell to rupture, that is called a lytic infection. A lysogenic infection is where a virus incorporates itself into the DNA of the cell it invades and replicates its genetic code.
