Figure 21.10 Which of the following statements is false? In the lytic cycle, new phages are produced and released into the environment. In the lysogenic cycle, phage DNA is incorporated into the host genome. An environmental stressor can cause the phage to initiate the lysogenic cycle. Cell lysis only occurs in the lytic cycle.
Figure 9.17 Which of the following statements about quorum sensing is false? Autoinducer must bind to receptor to turn on transcription of genes responsible for the production of more autoinducer. The receptor stays in the bacterial cell but the autoinducer diffuses out. Autoinducer can only act on a different cell: it cannot act on the cell in which it is made. Autoinducer turns on genes that enable the bacteria to form a biofilm.
