How do viruses "reproduce"? | Make copies |
What happen to the host organism after the reproduce? | get sick, cells get destroyed |
List the first step of the lytic cycle? | Viruses attaches to the cell |
List the second step of the lytic cycle? | DNA/RNA injected into the cell |

List the fourth step of the Lytic cycle? | Viruses copies itself |
What is the fifth step of Lytic cycle? | Cell bursts and releases new viruses |
Describe the lysogenic cycle | incorporated into cell DNA, gets replicated and the virus attaches to the cell inserts DNA/RNA, DNA/RNA with cell DNA, no diseases shows up. Lays Clormani for a period of time or until stressed. |
