Lysogenic and lytic viral stages?
Well im just going to type what it says in my bookIn bacterial viruses, the cycle of the viral infection, replication, and destruction is called the lytic cycle.During an infection, some viruses stay inside the cells but do not make new viruses. Instead of producing virus particles, the viral gene is inserted into the host chromosome and is called a provirus. Whenever the cell divides, the provirus also divides, resulting in two infected host cells. In this cycle, called the lysogenic cycle, the viral genome replicates without destorying the host cell. In some lysogenic viruses, change in the environment can causethe provirus to begin the lytic cycle, which means the destruction of the host cell.I hope this helps ^.^ --Pengi-Chan
Which is a highly contagious bacterial infection of the lungs?
pneumonia. Pneumonia is caused by by contact with mucus from an infected person or the introduction of bacteria or viruses normally present in the mouth.
A host chromosome with a viral gene inserted into it is a?
The host cell would have transgenic DNA. A vector is often used to this.
What is bacteria what is the carrier?
a bacterial carrier is usually call this because it carries a significant amount of bacteria. bacteria resides on 99% of everything in this world. something such as a fly, or a rat can at times carry concentrated amounts of harmful bacteria... and sometimes reffered to as bacterial carriers. a person who is sick with some type of bacterial infection could also be considered a bacterial carrier. Although most of the time when someone reffers to something as a bacterial carrier they mean something or someone containing significant amounts of harmful bacteria, it is in my opinion that pretty much anything can carry harmful bacterial at some level; therefore pretty much anything can be a bacterial carrier.

What happends when a bacteriophage infects a bacterial cell?
The phage injects it's genetic material into the bacteria this can either be RNA, DNA or both. This genetic material is then translated into viral proteins which are assembled into new viruses along with a brand new genetic package ready to infect a new bacteria.
