Virus Life Cycle

The video explains how viruses invade host cells and reproduce through two main cycles: the lytic and lysogenic cycles. The lytic cycle involves rapid replication and destruction of the host cell, while the lysogenic cycle integrates viral DNA into the host genome, remaining dormant until triggered. The video compares these cycles, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each in terms of reproduction speed and host cell impact.
