Which of the following is true about lysogenic cycle?

Accepted Answer

The viral genome can remain dormant within the host cell for long periods of time.

Answer

The viral genome is always released from the host cell during the lysogenic cycle.

Answer

The viral genome immediately takes control of the host cell's functions upon infection.

Answer

The lysogenic cycle involves the destruction of the host cell's chromosome.

Answer

The host cell's chromosome is replicated separately from the viral genome during the lysogenic cycle.

During the lysogenic cycle, what happens to the host cell?

Accepted Answer

The host cell continues its normal functions and division.

Answer

The host cell stops dividing and becomes dormant.

Answer

The host cell is destroyed by the viral genome.

Answer

The host cell's DNA is completely replaced by the viral genome.

Answer

The host cell releases new viral particles.
