Q

what is the lytic cycle

A

Attacks your cell right away and makes you sick immediately; you only get better when your immune system finishes fighting off the virus. (ex: common cold, flu)

Q

what is the lysogenic cycle

A

The virus injects its DNA into the host cell and then lies dormant (asleep) for a period of time. Every
time the host cell divides (mitosis), it will divide with the viral DNA. When it “wakes up,” the virus enters
the lytic cycle and attacks other living cells. (Ex: HIV -> AIDS, herpes)
