Answer 1

In the lytic cycle, new phages are produced and released into the environment.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement “In the lytic cycle, new phages are produced and released into the environment” is true. In the lytic cycle, a viral infection occurs, and the host cell is ultimately destroyed, releasing the newly produced phages. This is in contrast to the lysogenic cycle, where the viral genetic material gets inserted into the host cell's DNA and is not immediately released.
