In a lytic cycle, new phage particles will be produced; in a lysogenic cycle, the phage DNA is passed to new cells but does not produce phage particles. In a lytic cycle, the host cell does not die; in a lysogenic cycle, the host is killed. In a lytic cycle, the phage DNA enters the host cell; in a lysogenic cycle, the phage DNA remains on the exterior of the host cell. In a lytic cycle, the phage DNA incorporates into the host genome; in a lysogenic cycle, the phage DNA does not incorporate into the host genome.arrow_forwardWhy are encapsolated bacteria generally more pathogenic than un-capsolated strains. a. Because capsule allows the organism to hide in the body of the host. b. because the capsule causes the phagocyte to mutate c. because the capsule protects bacteria from host immune cells d. because the capsule kills the phagocytes e. because the capsule stimulates a potent immune response in the host.arrow_forward
