Summary Introduction

To answer:

The advantages and disadvantages carried out in the lytic cycle and lysogenic cycle by the bacteriophages.

Introduction:

The viruses that invade the bacterial cell are termed to be bacteriophages. The most common known bacteriophages are T4 bacteriophages. These bacteriophages have a complex icosahedral head that contains the genetic material and tail fiber like a hypodermic needle, through which they infect the bacteria with their genome.

Which statement is true regarding a bacteriophage in the lysogenic cycle? 111 A) O The bacteriophage can exit the lysogenic state depending on the condition of host cell B) O While in this cycle, it would cause no harm to the host cell. O OAs the host cell divides, the bacteriophage genome will be present in all of the host cell's progeny. |D) OIt would become a prophage. E) O All are true statements.
What is the difference between the lytic and lysogenic cycle of bacteriophages? In the lysogenic cycle, the phage DNA integrates itself into the host genome after penetration, and continues to biosynthesis when conditions change The host cell is not killed in the lysogenic cycle The lytic cycle occurs in the nucleus, while the lysogenic cycle occurs in the cytoplasm In the lysogenic cycle, penetration is achieved through phagocytosis
Discuss retroregulation and its significance in the biology of bacteriophage lambda during: a) Phage infection b) Prophage induction
