Summarize the lytic cycle. (1 point)

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.
A virus copies its genetic
material and then splits its
cell membranes in half to
form identical viruses.
A virus lays eggs on the host
cell’s protein coat, which
then hatch and move on to
infect other cells.

The lytic cycle is a process in which a virus injects its genetic material into a host cell, replicates itself, and then creates new viruses that burst out of the host cell.
