Question

Which cycle of virus's (lytic or lysogenic) causes host cells to burst?

1) Lytic cycle
2) Lysogenic cycle

Answer 1

The lytic cycle of a virus causes host cells to burst.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lytic cycle of a virus causes host cells to burst. In this cycle, the virus replicates inside the host cell, eventually leading to the lysis, or bursting, of the cell. This releases new virions that can go on to infect other cells.
