the host cell cycle
A lytic virus will destroy its' host cell at the end of the lytic cycle.
A lytic virus will destroy its' host cell at the end of the lytic cycle.
A virus attaches to a host cell by recognizing specific receptors on the cell surface. It then injects its genetic material, either DNA or RNA, into the cell. Once inside, the virus hijacks the cell's machinery to replicate its genetic material and produce more virus particles.

The lysogenic cycle, also known as the temperate cycle, does not destroy the host cell. In this cycle, the viral DNA inserts into the host cell's genome and replicates along with the host cell. The viral DNA can remain dormant for some time before entering the lytic cycle and producing new viral particles.
The second step in the reproductive cycle of an active virus is penetration and entry into the host cell. Once the virus attaches to the host cell surface, it enters the cell through various mechanisms such as endocytosis or direct fusion with the cell membrane. This step allows the virus to deliver its genetic material into the host cell where it can begin replication and assembly of new virus particles.
A virus can destroy cells by invading them, using the cellular machinery to replicate, and eventually causing cell death. This process can disrupt normal cell function and lead to tissue damage and inflammation.
It is actually the other way around. A virus destroys a host cell after it has make the replicants of the virus. The cell will split open (lyse) when full of new virions which then get released to infect other cells. Our immune systems can "destroy" a virus in a cell, but the cell itself does not do that. The immune system makes antibodies that fit the virus perfectly to block the way it would have attached to the cell to infect it. The antibody attaches to the virus to prevent its ability to attach to a cell. See the related question below about the lytic cycle for more details about virus "reproduction".
B cells mark the virus or paracite as unknown the killer t cells attack and destroy the virus.
when a virus enters a cell and is active, it cause the host cell to make new viruses, which destroy the host cell.
A virus is a microscopic being that can invade and destroy a cell. Viruses have some, but not all, of the characteristics of living things.
Viruses do not eat in the traditional sense like other organisms do. They rely on a host cell to reproduce and replicate their genetic material. Once inside a host cell, they hijack the cell's machinery to make new copies of themselves.
