____ is the viral replication cycle in which the virus' nucleic acid is integrated into the host cell's chromosome; a provirus is formed and replicated each time the host cell reproduces; the host cell is not killed until the lytic cycle is activated.

____ is also called phages, rivuses that infect and destroy bacteria.

____ is a type of reproduction where one parent produces one or more identical offspring without the fusion of gametes.

____ are bacteria that are killed by oxygen and can survive only in oxygen-free environments.

____ are disease-causing, nonliving particles composed of an inner core of nucleic acids surrounded by a capsid; replicate inside living cells called host cells.
