ex. a virus enters a cell, replicates, and then "lyses" (ruptures) the cell. those virus particles are now free to infect other cells.

Lytic.

Yes rabies is lytic. The lytic cycle is a cycle of viral reproduction and is how some diseases are spread.


Which type of virus reproduction results in the death of the host cell?

lytic cycle


What is the viral reproduction cycle that kills quickly?

One example of a viral reproduction cycle that can cause rapid death is the lytic cycle. In this cycle, the virus enters a host cell, replicates quickly, and then bursts the cell open to release new virus particles. This rapid destruction of host cells can lead to severe damage to the host organism and potentially result in death.


What are the phages called that are capable of using both modes of reproduction?

Phages that are capable of using both the lytic and lysogenic modes of reproduction are called temperate phages. In the lysogenic mode, temperate phages integrate their DNA into the host genome, while in the lytic mode, they replicate and cause cell lysis.


Why is the virus reproduction cycle is called the lytic cycle?

Lysis means cut open or split, the word lytic comes from lysis. In the lytic cycle, the host cells that have been infected by a virus will fill up with new viruses until they gets too full and then they split open to release the new viral particles, and the cell dies.

lytic it goes through the lytic cycle


What are the difference between reproduction by the lytic and lysogenic cycles?

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.
