When a virus enters a cell it?

When a virus enters a cell, it injects its genetic material into the cell. The virus then hijacks the cell’s machinery to replicate itself, producing more virus particles. This process can ultimately lead to cell death and the spread of the virus to other cells in the body.

What portion of the virus actually enters a cell is the?

The viral genome typically enters a cell during infection, which contains the genetic material needed for viral replication. The protein coat of the virus, known as the capsid, helps deliver the genetic material into the host cell.


How is a lysogenic virus different from a lytic virus?

Unlike lytic viruses, lysogenic viruses do NOT lyse the host cell right away where as lytic cells do.


What is lytic reproduction?

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