How does the impact of the virus differe between lytic and lysogenic cycles?

Biology
1 answer:
natta225 [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The main difference between the two cycles would be how in the lysogenic cycle the bacteriophage uses the host cell´s own systems for replication and reproduction, but without harming the host cell, while in the lytic cycle this passiveness changes and the bacteriophage becomes highly virulent and kills the host cell.

Explanation:

Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria. In their reproductive cycles, they have two stages, or cycles themselves. The first is the lysogenic cycle and the second the lytic cycle. In the lysogenic cycle the phage´s genetic material merges with that of the bacteria and the virus uses the host cell´s machinery to have its genetic material replicated and new phages produced. However, during this stage, the phage remains merged and does not affect its host much. There will be no active ensembling of new phages and thus the two can coexist, and almost collaborate. This happens thanks to repressor molecules that maintain the phage´s genetic material static. However, a phage may change this and activate itself, using the cell´s systems to start assembling new phages. WHen this happens, the phage becomes highly virulent and in the end dissolves not just the host cell´s genetic material, but will also kill the host cell itself.
