Phages that replicate only via the lytic cycle are known as virulent phages while phages that replicate using both lytic and lysogenic cycles are known as temperate phages.

Is mumps disease a bacteriophage?

it goes through the lysogenic cycle.


Why did Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase chose bacteriophage as their virus?

Because it infects bacteria and uses it as a factory to replicate and create more bacteriophage. T2 Bacteriophage undergoes lytic life cycle and NOT lysogenic life cycle


Which events occurs in the lytic cycle of bacteriophage T4 infection but not in the lysogenic cycle?

In the lytic cycle of bacteriophage T4 infection, the viral DNA takes control of the host cell machinery to replicate and assemble new viruses, leading to cell lysis and release of viral particles. This process does not involve integration of the viral DNA into the host genome, which is a key characteristic of the lysogenic cycle.


Which bacteriophage lifestyles involves continuous production of new bacteriophage again and again without stopping causing the nearly immediate death of each new host?

Sounds like you are describing the lysogenic cycle.


How the lytic cycle and lysogenic cycle are different?

Are warts in the lysogenic cycle or the lytic cycle?

I think its is in the lysogenic cycle but im not 100% sure.


What is lysogenic conversion?

Lysogenic conversion occurs when a bacteriophage integrates its DNA into the host bacterium's genome during the lysogenic cycle. This can lead to the insertion of new genetic material that may alter the phenotype of the host bacterium, such as providing new traits or making the bacterium pathogenic.
