What can cause a phage in the lysogenic stage to revert to the lytic stage?

ultraviolet light


What is the phage DNA that is integrated into a host cell's chromosome is called a?

Phage DNA that is integrated into a host's cell chromosome is a bacteriophage. They behave as lytic or lysogenic. Lytic breaks open the host after replication, , lysogenic does not destroy the host.


How does the reproduction of HIV and lambda phage differ?

The Lambda Phage bacterial virus replicates itself whilst the HIV virus binds itself to existing cells and damages them. Lamba Phage increases with a "lysogenic" cycle, whilst the increase of HIV is known as "Lytic".

lysogenic

B) Lysogenic


In the term macrophage what does the suffix mean?

What is a lysogenic bacteriophage?

Lysogenic is when the virus enters and binds into the hosts DNA and one could replicate slowly or two when the virus sense the host cell is about to die, the virus will go into lyic cycle and replicate and kills the host cell.


Why to use soft agar in phage titration?

Phage can move easily in soft agar,it can bind with another bacteria after lysis


What happens when a bacteriophage infects a bacteria cell?

When a bacteriophage infects a bacteria it enters either the lyctic or lysogenic cycle. the lyctic is the stages of: injection, reproduction, host destruction. The lysogenic cycle is when the virus' RNA mixes with the host cell's.


What is the difference between a bacteriaiophage and a prophage?

A bacteriophage is a completely assembled virus capable of landing on a bacterium and injecting it's genetic material in lysis, or a lysogenic attack. A provirus is a virus that has incorporated it's genetic material into the genetic material of the host for continual replication, thus, " before " the phage. This is the lysogenic phase of viral attack.


What does it mean for a virus to have a lysogenic reproductive cycle?

The lysogenic cycle replicates the phage genome without destroying the host. Similar to Lytic reproduction, Lysogenic also begins when the phage inserts its DNA or RNA into the host cell through its surface. Once the nucleic acid is inside the cell, it forms a circle, and becomes a part of the genome of the host cell. It does this through genetic recombination, or crossing over. Once it joins the host’s genome, it is called a prophage. Since it is a part of the host cell’s genome, the phage’s genetic information is copied and distributed to the daughter cells of the host cell, which continues dividing naturally. This allows the prophage to be repeatedly copied and passed on without destroying the host cell it depends on for metabolic and reproduction purposes. In order for actual active phages to be produced, the segment of genome from the original phage exits the genome of the host cell and becomes independent. When this occurs, it begins the lytic cycle, destroying the cell, but producing new and functional phages.
