Question

Which of the following is true about a lysogenic infection?      

a) The virus lyses the host cell immediately.
b) The virus embeds its DNA into the host’s DNA.
c) The virus’s DNA is replicated along with the host cell’s DNA.
d) A host cell makes copies of the virus indefinitely.

Answer 1

I think it's B

I hope this helps and you have a good day! :)

Answer 2

The correct answer will be option-B

Step-by-step explanation:

A bacteriophage virus invades a host cell and replicates via two processes: the lytic and lysogenic cycle.

During the lysogenic cycle, the virus replicates its genome by injecting its genetic material to bacteria which gets integrated into the DNA of the host cell. The genetic material of the bacteriophage is then replicated along with the bacterial genome.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
