A bacteriophage looks like a long upright insect-like organism with a diamond shape. The bottom of it is a base plate, a hexagonal plate above that that leads up to the long upright "body" or helical sheath with a tin collar core and atop of that the "diamond-shaped" head.
The type of virus that infects a bacteria is called a bacteriophage. An example of such a bacteriophage is the T3 bacteriophage.
a key unlocks a door. The genetic material of a bacteriophage enters a bacterium by attaching to the bacterial cell wall and injecting its DNA or RNA into the host cell, taking over the cell's machinery to replicate itself. Just like a key unlocks a door to gain entry, the bacteriophage's genetic material gains entry into the bacterium to begin infection.
bacteriophage (literally, phage = eat, bacterio = bacteria)
A virus that infects bacteria is called a bacteriophage. Bacteriophages are specific to infecting bacterial cells and can inject their genetic material into the host bacterium, leading to replication and eventual destruction of the bacterial cell.
A bacteriophage is a virus that infects and replicates within bacteria. It does this by injecting its genetic material into a host bacterium and using the host's cellular machinery to replicate itself. Bacteriophages are being researched for potential applications in areas like medicine and biotechnology.
A virus that attacks bacteria is called a "Bacteriophage"

No. A bacteriophage is a virus that attacks bacteria.
the scientific name for bacteriophage is Enterobacteria phage Mu , get it right
A bacteriophage is a kind of virus that infects and kills bacteria.a virus that attacks bacteria
A bacteriophage ("eater of bacteria") inject their DNA (or RNA) into the cell.

Sounds like you are describing the lysogenic cycle.
