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.


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.


Why is a lytic infection given that name?

A lytic infection is named based on the process of viral replication and cell destruction. In a lytic infection, the virus enters a host cell, replicates using the cell's machinery, and then causes the cell to burst (lyse), releasing new virus particles to infect other cells. This process is called lysis, hence the name lytic infection.


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.


What is it called when a animal cell swells and bursts when entering water?

The process is called osmotic lysis. This occurs when a cell takes in too much water due to a hypotonic environment, causing it to swell and eventually burst.

What is it called when a host cell bursts?

The bursting of a host cell is called cell lysis.


Enveloped viruses are released from the host cell by?

Enveloped viruses are typically released from the host cell by budding, where the virus takes a portion of the host cell membrane as its envelope. This process does not usually cause cell lysis. Instead, the newly formed virus particles are released gradually from the cell.


Viruses make the host cell produce new viruses which kills th host cell?

Yes, viruses hijack the host cell's machinery to replicate themselves, eventually causing the cell to burst and release new viruses. This process, known as lysis, results in the death of the host cell.


What is the rupture of plasma membranes called?

The rupture of plasma membranes is called cell lysis. This occurs when the membrane is compromised, leading to the release of cell contents into the surrounding environment.

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.


Is the spanish influenza virus single celled or mulitcellular?

Neither. Viruses do not have cells but are surrounded by protein capsids containing the viral DNA or RNA. Some viruses have glycoprotein coats that they take from the membranes of cells they preform lysis on.
