In a lysogenic infection, once the DNA of the virus is incorporated into the bacterial DNA, it is called a prophage. This integrated viral DNA can remain dormant within the bacterial genome, replicating along with the host cell's DNA during cell division. Under certain conditions, the prophage can be induced to enter the lytic cycle, leading to the production of new viral particles.

An infection in which DNA of a virus is embedded into a host cell and replicates with host DNA is called what?

This process is called lysogeny, and the host cell is referred to as a lysogenic cell. The integrated viral DNA is known as a prophage.


What is inflammation of the lacrimal gland by bacterial viral or fungal infection called?

Inflammation of the lacrimal gland by bacterial, viral, or fungal infection is called Dacryoadenitis.


Can you get trichomoniasis from a bacterial infection?

Trichomoniasis is a protozoal infection. It's not caused by a bacteria, and a bacterial infection can't turn into trichomoniasis.


Type of infection in which a host cell makes copies of the virus indefintely?

The Lysogenic Cycle. The virus' DNA will integrate itself into the host cell's own DNA, such that the cell will continue to make copies of the virus for as long as it survives (and if it passes down its DNA to daughter cells).


Lysogenic and lytic viral stages?

Well im just going to type what it says in my bookIn bacterial viruses, the cycle of the viral infection, replication, and destruction is called the lytic cycle.During an infection, some viruses stay inside the cells but do not make new viruses. Instead of producing virus particles, the viral gene is inserted into the host chromosome and is called a provirus. Whenever the cell divides, the provirus also divides, resulting in two infected host cells. In this cycle, called the lysogenic cycle, the viral genome replicates without destorying the host cell. In some lysogenic viruses, change in the environment can causethe provirus to begin the lytic cycle, which means the destruction of the host cell.I hope this helps ^.^ --Pengi-Chan

What are two ways a virus can enter a host cell?

Viruses can cause lytic infections or lysogenic infections. When a virus enters a cell to make copies of itself, causing the cell to rupture, that is called a lytic infection. A lysogenic infection is where a virus incorporates itself into the DNA of the cell it invades and replicates its genetic code.


In what cycle of the viral replication does the virus the host cell?

During the cycle of viral shedding, the virus has made copies of itself and the host cell is no longer useful. The host cell then dies, and the new virus cells then must find a new host.
