A cell is infected by a virus, which injects its DNA into the host cell. The cell then produces messenger RNA (mRNA) from the viral genes. The mRNA produces proteins that destroy the host cell's DNA and immediately turns the cell's molecular machinery to the job of making viral DNA and capsids. What is the name of this process?

• a bacteriophage infection

• a lytic infection

• a prophage infection

• a lysogenic infection

Species belonging to the kingdom Archaea differ from species belonging to the kingdom Protista in that Archaea tend to ______.

• have a true nucleus that houses the cell's DNA.

• contain cells that have more membrane-bound organelles than Protista.

• be found in extreme environments like hot springs, deep oceans and swamps.

• contain both multi-celled and single celled organisms that have membrane-bound organelles.
