Which best describes the lysogenic cycle?
a) a person who is infected with the herpes virus may develop a cold sore when the virus is in the lysogenic cycle.
b) the lysogenic cycle occurs mainly in extremely infectious diseases that rapidly cause infection.
c) in the lysogenic cycle, genetic material from the virus and host cells are integrated and are called a provirus.
d) in the lysogenic cycle, virus particles are produced and assembled within the host cell.

The correct answer would be option C.

Lysogenic cycle is one of the two replicating cycles of the virus or bacteriophage.

In this cycle, the genetic material of the virus gets integrated with the genome of the host cell.

The integrated genetic material divides every time the host cell divides and passed on to the daughter cells with each division.

The genetic material of the virus or bacteriophage which gets integrated with the host genome is termed as a prophage.

Thus, the host cell does not get lysed and can reproduce normally.
