Which viral life cycle allows viral genetic material to lay dormant while the host cell reproduces?

• lytic
• mitosis
• lysogenic
• S phase

Which viral life cycle kills its host cell by lysing?

• lytic
• mitosis
• lysogenic
• S phase

What do viruses need to reproduce?

• they need genetic material
• They need a host cell
• They need  bacteria
• They need insulin

What happens in the lysogenic cycle? 

• Virus goes in and leaves the host cell
• Virus quickly kills the host cell
• Virus inject the nucleic acid into the host cell, and the nucleic acid integrates into the host cell DNA, and stay dormant for a long time
• Bacteria injects DNA into a host cell
