Options for C: 32P, 35S
The image illustrates the process of how a bacteriophage infects a bacterial cell. It consists of three main stages depicted in a series of diagrams from left to right.

1. **First Diagram:**
   - A bacteriophage approaches a bacterial cell.
   - The bacteriophage is labeled with components A, B, and C.
     - **A**: The tail fibers attached to the surface of the bacterial cell.
     - **B**: The sheath part of the bacteriophage.
     - **C**: The head of the bacteriophage containing the viral DNA.

2. **Second Diagram:**
   - The bacteriophage contracts its sheath (B), injecting its DNA (C) into the bacterial cell.
   - The viral DNA is shown entering the bacterium and beginning to replicate.

3. **Third Diagram:**
   - The viral particles inside the bacterial cell take over the cell's machinery.
   - The bacterial cell is filled with newly replicated viral components.

Arrows between the diagrams indicate the progression from one stage to the next, highlighting the infection process from bacteriophage attachment to viral replication within the bacterium.
