Question

Which viral reproductive cycle does the viral genetic info become integrated/incorporated in the host cells genetic info and remain dormant until activated by a stressor?

Lysogenic Cycle


Lytic Cycle

Answer 1

The lysogenic cycle is the viral reproductive cycle wherein the viral genetic information becomes integrated, or incorporated, into the host cell's genetic information and remains dormant until activated by a stressor. In this cycle, the virus does not immediately replicate and instead enters a dormant state, known as lysogeny. When the host cell experiences a stressor or trigger, the virus may be activated and begin to replicate itself
