Question

Virus replication results in the death of the cell in a(n) __________ infection. latent lytic both latent and persistent persistent oncogenic

Answer 1

Lytic infection

Step-by-step explanation:

• Viral replication starts extracellularly and the viruses must enter a host cell to complete the replication.
• The replication of viruses entails the incorporation of viral DNA into a host cell. This is followed by the replication of the viral DNA and the release of new viruses.
• Virus replication results in the death of the cell in a lytic infection. At the release stage the new viruses are released from the host cell by the breaking apart of the cell or through the cell membrane, and the cell then dies.
