1. Lytic phages lyse their host cells, whereas temperate phages either lyse their host or integrate their DNA into the host cell’s genome. Prophage DNA often codes for gene products that confer new properties on the host. Filamentous single-stranded DNA phages are extruded from the host cells without killing the cell. How can a productive phage infection not kill a host cell?
Adi S.
Which of the following is characteristic of the lysogenic cycle? A large number of phages are released at a time. The virus-host relationship usually lasts for generations. The viral genome replicates without destroying the host. Viral DNA is incorporated into the host genome.

What occurs during the biosynthesis stage of the lytic cycle of a bacteriophage? A. The phage attaches to the surface of the host B. The phage DNA replicates and phage proteins are made C. The new phage particles are assembled D. The cell lysis and the phages are released
