Summary Introduction

To determine: The condition in which viruses might choose lysogeny rather than lysis and the effect of this on carbon flow.

Introduction: In nature, viruses are categorized on the basis of their life cycles as lysogenic and lytic viruses. Lysogenic virus uses the machinery of the host cell and incorporates its DNA fragment into the cell without degrading the cell. However, the lytic virus kills the host after producing multiple copies of viruses to spread to the next organism. The process of lysogenic conversion means that the viral genome is combined with the genome of bacteria resulting in new properties shown by the bacteria.

If you transplant trunk neural crest into the cranial neural crest region of a developing embryo, will you see the donor tissue form cartilage? Does the neural crest only give rise to two cells in the developing embryo, and is essential for lamprey to develop their jaw structure? Does a multipotent neural crest cell that is receiving Wnt signals become a Chromaffin cell?
