Summary Introduction
To tell:
Why the lysogenic and latent phases are longer lasting than lytic infections.
Introduction:
In order to replicate and produce copies of its own, the viruses need a host cell to survive. All viruses enter the host through attachment, entry, synthesis, assembly, and release. Depending upon the state of the virus, they can carry out lytic cycle or lysogenic cycle.
