The lytic cycle involves a virus injecting its genetic material into a host cell, copying itself, and then forming new viruses that burst out of the host cell. The viral DNA incorporates itself with the host cell's DNA and replicates whenever the host cell replicates itself. Finally, the virus copies its genetic material and splits its cell membranes to form identical viruses.
The lytic cycle can be summarized as follows: A virus injects its genetic material into the host cell, copies itself, and then forms new viruses that burst out of the host cell. The viral DNA incorporates itself with the host cell’s and replicates whenever the host cell replicates itself. The cycle repeats as the virus continues to infect other cells.
The lytic cycle is a process that viruses use to infect and reproduce within a host cell. Here is a summary:
1. Attachment: The virus attaches to the surface of the host cell.
2. Injection: The virus injects its genetic material (DNA or RNA) into the host cell.
3. Replication: The viral genetic material takes control of the host cell's machinery and starts making copies of itself.
4. Assembly: The viral components assemble together to form new viruses inside the host cell.
5. Release: The host cell bursts open (lyses) and releases the newly formed viruses, which can then go on to infect other cells and continue the cycle.
To get this answer, I analyzed the different statements you provided and extracted the main points from each one. I then organized them in a logical sequence to summarize the lytic cycle.
