Summarize the lytic cycle. (1 point)

The viral DNA incorporates itself with the host cells and replicates whenever the host cell replicates itself.

A virus copies its genetic material and then splits its cell membranes in half to form identical viruses.

A virus lays eggs on the host cell’s protein coat, which then hatch and move on to infect other cells.


A virus injects its genetic material into the host cell, copies itself, and then forms new viruses that burst out of the host cell.
