BeauIn the lysogenic cycle, the virus's genetic material integrates into the host's genome and remains dormant, only activating later to enter the lytic cycle. The lytic cycle involves the virus immediately taking over the host cell's machinery to replicate and destroy the host cell to release new viral particles.

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?
Cowpox virus goes through a lytic cycle, where it actively replicates inside the host cell and ultimately causes the destruction of the cell to release new virus particles.
Does the avian flu have a lytic or lysogenic cycle?
The avian flu virus primarily follows a lytic cycle. During this cycle, the virus infects the host cell, replicates itself, and then lyses (breaks open) the cell to release new viral particles.
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 Measles go through the lysogenic life cycle or lytic life cycle?
Measles goes through the lytic life cycle, where the virus enters a host cell, replicates, and then destroys the host cell to release new viral particles. This leads to symptoms associated with the infection.
