Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Phages are the viruses that infect bacteria. They do so by injecting their genetic material in bacteria and henceforth its integration in the bacterial DNA. For examples of phages are T4, T2 phages and so on.

- If the HIV did not have a reverse transcriptase enzyme, then which of the following would apply? Select one: a. The virus can make use of the reverse transcriptase enzyme from the host cell to convert its RNA into DNA b. Viral particles will be produced without reverse transcriptase enzyme since the original HIV is an RNA virus and needs to assemble RNA ant coat proteins together c.
