What is it called when a cell explodes I can not think of the name it says with an A though i know that?

I'm pretty sure its called lysis. It often occurs in the life cycle of viruses.


What virus causes a cell to burst?

Lysis is the name for the splitting open of the host cell membrane with the release of newly formed virus particles. It is one of the ways that the new viruses are released after replication. The release is called viral shedding. Another way that viruses are shed, besides through lysis, is budding. Viruses that need to be held in an envelope after formation (like HIV and smallpox), separate from the host cell through a process called budding, where they surround themselves with a piece of the cell's plasma membrane prior to the release.


Why is a lytic infection given that name?

Lytic refers to lysis which means separate in Greek. When a virus has replicated in a cell, the new viruses made in the cell cause the cell to separate or split open so the virus particles can get out and infect more cells and make more viruses.


What is complement how does it cause bacterial lysis what are some othere roles of complement?

Complement is a collection of proteins found in the blood that are effective against a wide variety of bacteria. Complement can cause bacterial lysis when the C5-C9 proteins are activated by C3. The C9 proteins insert into the bacterial cell membrane causing lysis and destruction of the bacteria.


What is the difference between lysis and plasmolysis?

When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will enter the cell. This is called lysis. When a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell (causing it to shrink). This is called plasmolysis.

Does a virus excrete?

The viruses inject the waste material into the host cells, The host cells remove the waste product by exocytosis by engulfing the waste material in a vesicle and transporting it outside the cell.
