Identify the steps of the lytic cycle. The pieces made in replication are
assembled to complete the new virus
particles.
The new viral nucleic acid and viral
proteins are replicated.
The virus attaches to the host cell.
The original virus releases a protein that
causes the cell wall to burst (lysis), killing
the cell and releasing viruses.
The host's DNA is disassembled and the
virus takes over the cell's metabolic
activity
