Which occurs in both the lytic cycle and the lysogenic cycle?

Both the lytic and lysogenic cycles involve the infection of a host cell by a virus, leading to the insertion of viral genetic material into the host. In both cycles, the viral DNA can be integrated into the host's genome, although in the lysogenic cycle, it remains dormant for a time before potentially entering the lytic phase. Additionally, both cycles ultimately result in the production of new viral particles, although this occurs more immediately in the lytic cycle.


How are lytic and lysogenic cycles the same?

They are the same only in the way that take over the cell hosts. The lytic cycle will cause the cell to rapidly rupture and die at the end of their life cycle. The lysogenic virus will hide in the cell's nucleus for many cycles until it too will cause the death of the cell.


Does cowpox go through lytic or lysogenic cycles?

Smallpox goes through a lytic cycle as it does not become dormant.


Marburg virus lytic or lysogenic?

There is a specific difference between the 2 cycles. In the Lytic cycle, the virus DNA/RNA remains separate from the Host's DNA. In the Lysogenic cycle, the virus DNA/RNA is incorporated (combined) into the host's DNA. Any virus injects its DNA into a host's cell. No matter what, in both cycles, the host cell ends up bursting and releasing the viruses. The Marburg virus incubates (grows) inside a host's cell, usually from 5-7 days, but can range from 3-10 days overall. It also produces new viruses which release into the organism (in this case, the human or primate). The Marburg Virus goes through both lytic and lysogenic cycles.


Does the avian flu have a lytic or lysogenic cycle?

I believe it is lytic. Think: colds are fast acting; they don't sit in your cell for years on end. This means they are lytic (fast acting).
